Measurements of Sc I gf -values

By means of a ‘heat pipe’ and the ‘hook method’ the gf-values for 98 transitions in neutral scandium between 200 and 650 nm have been measured. Of these transitions, 33 are unclassified lines that occur in pairs with the lower energy level identified, and 14 are unclassified but are believed to originate from one of the two levels of the ground term. The absolute scale of gf-values has been based on the measurements of Bell & Lyzenga (1976). We have compared our values to those in the literature.
