Lifetime Measurements for Electric-Dipole Δn =0 Transitions in the Beryllium-Like Sulfur

We have measured lifetimes of Δn = 0 allowed transitions in beryllium-like sulfur using beam foil spectroscopic techniques. The measured values, derived from analysis of arbitrarily normalized decay curves, are presented and compared with theoretical calculations and previous measurements. Accurate probabilities have been determined by the well-known relationship.
