[en] Theoretical transition probabilities are reported for doubly ionized gold (Au III). They have been obtained through the use of two different independent theoretical approaches, i.e. the SUPERSTRUCTURE code and a HFR model including valence-valence and core-valence configuration interaction in a detailed way. The new scale of A-values is assessed through the comparison of the two sets of results and also through the use of a model similar to the one selected for an isoelectronic ion, i.e. Pt II, for which accurate laser-induced-fluorescence lifetimes have been measured recently.
