The following work describes the experimental determination of the absolute oscillator strengths of several N II-lines. The light source was the plasma of a wall-stabilized enclosed [cylindrical] arc in pure nitrogen. The parameters of this plasma near the axis of the arc were calculated from the measured total intensity of the hydrogen-like triplet-multiplet of the series 2p3d-2p4f. It was here assumed that the oscillator strengths of this multiplet can be calculated by the Bates and Damgaard Coulomb field approximation. In addition, an attempt was made to check the measured oscillator strengths of the N II line in the nitrogen plasma by measurements in a helium-nitrogen mixture, using the known oscillator strengths of helium.
