Description

Single-colour resonance three-photon ionization of Sm atoms is studied within the 542.4-581.6 nm spectral range. Wavenumber dependence of the Sm+ ion yield shows more than 600 maxima of different amplitudes and shapes. Most of the resonance structure observed is due to two-photon excitation of even-parity bound states lying in the 34 713.1-40 526.7 cm-1 energy range. Fifteen new even-parity bound states have been found. Their energies and total momenta have been determined
