Experimental and theoretical energy levels, transition probabilities and radiative lifetimes in YbIII
The analysis of the spectrum of Yb rn has been extended allowing us to establish 11 new energy level values. In addition, radiative lifetimes of two excited states of Yb III have been measured for the first time using time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence following two-photon excitation. The good agreement between experimental results and semi-empirical calculations performed with the relativis
