O III - VERSION 11.0.1


The CHIANTI database has the following primary ASCII files for this ion:

  1. o_3.elvlc (energy levels)
  2. contains the energy levels (in cm-1). It includes both experimental and theoretical values of the levels energies.

    DOI:  10.1051/0004-6361/201936931 
    
    Note: only the 177 bound levels have been retained.
    
    Observed energies:

    Note: for the lower levels, the approximate values given by NIST
    have been retained. For the higher ones, they have not been included
    because they are obviously offset.

  3. o_3.wgfa (radiative data)
  4. contains wavelengths, gf and A values of the transitions. The wavelengths are based on the experimental energy levels and should be the best available. Wavelengths calculated from the theoretical energies are of an indeterminate accuracy and their values are presented as negative values of the calculated wavelength.

     
    
    gf-values, A-values and theoretical energies:

    Note: only the 177  bound levels have been retained.
    
    Only transition probabilities with a branching ratio
    greater than 10^(-5) have been retained.
