Notes. Configurations and terms according to Kröger et al. (2007); the wavelength given in the fifth column specifies the line that was used to determine the Aexp and Bexp values; when a hyperfine structure constant was determined by more than one line, the weighted mean value Amean and Amean, respectively, are calculated, using error bar of Aexp and Bexp as weight. In column Amean, twice the standard deviation that resulted from the weighted mean value calculation is given as error.

(*)

Hyperfine structure constants of lower level were fixed during the fit.
