Abstract

Resonance ionization mass spectrometry is applied to investigate high-lying even-parity states of Sm i. Eighty-six even-parity states of Sm i are discovered in the region 32 950–36 000 cm⁻¹. Absolute energies of these states are measured with an uncertainty of ±0.3 cm⁻¹, and total angular momenta are uniquely assigned for most of them.
