Recent work in atomic spectroscopy at the Department of Physics, University of Lund, Sweden, is reviewed briefly, and several applications of this work to atomic astrophysics are presented. Smitt (1977) and Smitt and Edlen (1978) made new identifications of coronal lines, while new tables of predicted forbidden lines were published on Fe V (Ekberg, 1975), Fe VI (Ekberg, 1975) and Fe IV (Ekberg and Edlen, 1978). Extensive studies of spectra of phosphorus and sulphur (Magnusson and Zetterberg, 1977; Svendenius, 1980) have also improved the wavelength accuracy of several astrophysical multiplets. New observations of Fe I (Litzen, 1976) in the near infrared also explained many unidentified lines in the solar spectrum. The extended analysis of Fe II made it possible to explain about 50 remaining lines in the infrared spectrum of Eta Carinae (Johansson, 1978).
