Summary, in English

Radiative lifetimes of 17 high-lying excited states in Rh I aremeasured using the time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence method. Out of these lifetimes, 13 are new and the remaining four confirm previous measurements. Furthermore, we report the first theoretical investigation of Rh I, where the radiative decay properties of all experimentally known levels below 47 000 cm(-1) are calculated using a pseudo-relativistic Hartree-Fock method including core polarization effects. The theoretical calculations are found to be in very good agreement with the experimental results. A large set of new transition probabilities is presented for lines of astrophysical interest in the spectral range 2200-10 000 angstrom.
