 147-152  F6.3   ---     gfKP     [/3]? log gf given by Kurucz(K000 or K002)
 153-161  F9.3   nm      lamKP    [0/99999]? original wavelength in K000 or K002

Note (1): These are given only for 1999.3520A ≤ lambda < 2000.0000A.
     Vacuum wavelength below 1999.3520A, air wavelength above 2000.0000A.
Note (2): These are introduced, for example, for the mean wavelength
     of the multiplet.
Note (3): This terminology was introduced by Kelly(1983,=K001).

Note (4): The accuracies in the NBS compilations(ref.W001,W002,W003,
     Y001,F001,F002) are converted into 'symbolic' numerical values
     (dex) as follows:
                  '003'(AA+)  '004'(AA)  '005'(AA-)
                  '012'( A+)  '013'( A)  '014'( A-)
                  '03 '( B+)  '04 '( B)  '05 '( B-)
                  '09 '( C+)  '10 '( C)  '11 '( C-)
                  '17 '( D+)  '18 '( D)  '19 '( D-).
Note (5): A question mark is introduced for the line in K002 whose
     energy level value differs considerably from the current term
     analysis. We re-calculated the wavelength, following the recent
     interpretation, but the gf-value is kept unchanged.
      Note that this mark is not introduced for K000. If lambda differs
     from lamKP greatly, the gf value in K000 is also questionable.
Note (6): The last column is usually used for the quality:
           a    asymmetric
           b    blend, double
           c    complex
           d    diffuse, broad
           h    hazy
           l    shaded towards longer wavelength
           m    masked
           n    nebulous
           p    perturbed by close line
           r    reversed
           s    shaded towards shorter wavelength
           w    wide
           +    slightly larger than
           -    slightly less than
           >    greater than
           ?    questionable
           :    uncertain
      All six columns may be occupied by the intensity value itself in
     the case of wide range intensity scale.
Note (7): The first column is usually 'U'(Moore's ultraviolet multiplet
     tables=ref.0488) or 'V'(ref.1015). See section C for others.
Note (8): We usually adopt Kelly's(1983,=K001) expression for the term
     designations other than the LS coupling.
