Abstract

We revisit the photoabsorption from the ground state of K through the first ionization limit, and provide recommended values for the optical oscillator strengths. The anomaly in the oscillator strength ratio within each doublet is also revisited and compared with both the experimental data available and the relativistic calculations available.
