Abstract

The wavelength of the important ultraviolet diagnostic lines in the spectra C IV near 155 nm and Si IV near 139 nm were measured with a vacuum ultraviolet Fourier transform spectrometer and a high-current Penning discharge source. Our measurement also provides accurate wavelengths for resonance transitions in Al III, Al III, and Si II.
