Oscillator strengths of allowed transitions for O III

The electric dipole oscillator strengths for lines in O III between some singlet and triplet levels have been calculated using the weakest bound electron potential model theory and the quantum defect orbital theory. In the calculations, both multiplet and fine-structure transitions are studied. The calculated oscillator strengths have been compared with available theoretical and experimental results. Good agreement with results in the literature has been obtained. © 2011 Elsevier Inc.
