A detailed examination of a high-resolution Fourier-transform spectrum of a platinum hollow-cathode discharge in the near infrared has yielded one Pt i and four Pt ii parity-forbidden magnetic dipole transitions. Theoretical calculations and analysis of the hyperfine structure are used to confirm these assignments, and applications to astrophysics and lasers are suggested.

Errors in parentheses are from the least-squares fit and do not include possible systematic errors.
Intensity is relative to the actual P–Ne FTS spectrum. Strongest line in the infrared FTS spectrum was a Ne transition at 6563.9 cm−1 with a relative intensity of 1000.
Ref. 1. Estimated error is mainly due to centriod approximation.
Doppler width corresponds to a thermal temperature of ~5000 K.
Computed from level isotope shifts.7
Not varied in the least-squares fit.

The calculated gA values (in reciprocal seconds) for electric quadrupole radiation are in the upper right-hand section of the table, and those for magnetic dipole are in the lower left. Values for gA less than 1 are given as powers of 10, i.e., E-3 = 10−3. The experimental energies are from the literature,1 except for the 3P0 state, which was recently located at 16983.49 cm−1.
