Abstract
Radiative lifetimes of 27 levels (27 041.751–38 434.97 cm−1) in Gd I and 27 levels (27 130.397–45 394.925 cm−1) in Gd II have been measured using the time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence method. Laser ablation was used to generate Gd atoms and ions on a Gd plate. The measured lifetime values range from 4.0 to 90 ns with an uncertainty of 5% or less. Of all the results, to our knowledge, lifetimes of 23 Gd II levels and 11 Gd I levels are reported for the first time. Good agreement between our results and the previous ones has been achieved.
