Abstract:

Oscillator strengths for excitations of As I, As II, and As III from their ground states to various excited states are calculated using a semiempirical analytic independent-particle-model. The results are compared to experimental and theoretical data where possible. The results are of astrophysical interest.

Key words: oscillator strengths -- As I, As II, As III -- atomic data
