Description:
    A sample of the agreement between experiment (recent experimental
    log(gf) values) and our method (orthogonal operator technique) is
    shown in table 1. The experimental data are taken from the critical
    compilation by Giridhar and Ferro (1995RMxAA..31...23G) using data
    from Kroll and Kock (1987A&AS...67..225K), and from most recent data
    by Bergeson et al. (1996ApJ...464.1044B). Eight lines in this table
    are indicated by * in front of the orthogonal log(gf) value: for these
    lines the difference between experimental value and our calculated
    value is >=0.2.
