Abstract
Recent measurements of the wavelengths of two resonance transitions in singly-ionized silicon, Si II, by Griesmann and Kling, Astrophys. J., 2000, 536, L113 provide a comparison of wavelength scales derived from standard Cd, Hg and Kr lamps and the new scale derived from heterodyne frequency measurements combined with the adopted value for the speed of light.
