Description:
    New radiative transition probabilities have been calculated for
    forbidden lines of astrophysical interest in Ni I and Ni II. The
    accuracy of the transition probability scales is established on the
    basis of two independent calculations performed with the approximately
    relativistic Hartree-Fock (HFR) and SUPERSTRUCTURE (SST) codes. Both
    physical models take into account the most important configuration
    interaction (CI) and relativistic effects.
