17. This number of ∼2500 shots is for the original data taken in 1998. There have been many improvements in the spectrometer since then with a resulting increase in sensitivity. We recently remeasured some of these transitions. We can now observe these transitions with reasonable signal-to-noise ratios in 1-128 gas pulses, depending upon the transition.
