Abstract Ti and Cr ions at specific energies of 3.6 MeV/N and 5.0 MeV/N have been excited by passing them through thinC foils. The emission ofK-x rays andK-Auger electrons have been investigated using a flat crystal spectrometer and an electrostatic cyclindrical mirror analyzer. The lifetimes of the (1s2p)3 P 2 and (1s2s2p)4 P 5/2 states have been determined by applying the time-of-flight technique. The experimental resultsτ(Ti20+,3 P 2)=(404±40)ps,τ(Cr22+,3 P 2)=(215±35)ps,τ(Ti19+,4 P 5/2)=(236±12)ps, andτ(Cr21+,4 P 5/2)=(140±8)ps are compared with calculated lifetimes.
