S. O. Kastner, M. Swartz, A. K. Bhatia, and J. Lapides, "Observations of n = 3 → n′ = 4 transitions in the Mg i and Si i sequences for elements chromium through zinc," J. Opt. Soc. Am. 68, 1558-1564 (1978)
Extreme ultraviolet spectra of 3p2-3p4d and 3p3d-3p4f transition arrays in twelve- and fourteen-electron ions, which differ by only a closed 3s2 subshell, are investigated in more detail than hitherto obtained for the elements chromium through zinc. The spectra were obtained with a two-meter vacuum spectrograph using a high-voltage spark source. Single- and multi-configuration calculations were carried out to compare predictions obtained for different model assumptions, and for the two different sequences.

For a given level, entries in the first row are compositions for the magnesium-like ions of the elements in the column headings, while entries in the second row are compositions of the silicon-like ions.
For some levels of varying compositions along the sequences, the LS-coupling designations can be seen to be arbitrary to an extent.

These wavelengths have been given different classifications by Ekberg,7 who assigns 129.935 Å to 3s3p(3P2) − 3s4d(3D3), and by Fawcett et al.17 who assign 156.68 Å to 2s22p4(3P2) − 2s2p5(3P1); see text.

The classification suggested for this line differs from that of Fawcett et al.,12 who assign the line to 3s3d(1D2) − 3s4f(1F3). The line may be a blend.

In Tables V and VI, it should be noted that the letter designations of 3p2 − 3p4d transitions are unrelated to the letters designating 3p3d − 3p4f transitions. In all cases the letter designations are consistent with the associated figures.
