Abstract Oxygen ions from a 2 MV tandem accelerator have been used in beam-foil spectroscopic studies of O II, O III and O IV in the wavelength region 2000–5000 Å. Excitation functions for relative level populations in O II, O III and O IV in the incident energy range of 1.2–3.75 MeV have been measured and interpreted in terms of the independent electron model. Mean radiative lifetime measurements for a number of levels including cascades 4631 Å feeding to 2450 Å and 4344 Å feeding to 2385 Å in O IV have resulted in consistent values. Lifetime measurements for some of the O II levels of astrophysical interest have been reinvestigated and significant deviations from earlier values were observed.
