Summary, in English

Radiative lifetimes of 16 odd levels belonging to the 4d(2)5p configuration of Zr II have been measured using a time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence technique with a single-step excitation process either from the ground state or from metastable levels belonging to the 4d(2)5s and 4d(3) configurations. For 12 levels, there were no previous results available. The new experimental results and the lifetime values available in the literature have allowed to test a theoretical relativistic Hartree-Fock (HFR) model including core-polarization effects and to deduce transition probabilities for 242 transitions of astrophysical interest in the range 187.8-535.0 nm.
