contents We present the first measurement of 9p 2P1/2,3/2 and 10p 2P1/2,3/2 excited levels absolute wavenumbers and radiative lifetime in francium. We used the Collinear Resonance Ionization Spectroscopy (CRIS) technique, applied on a beam of 221Fr atoms. Prior to this work, no experimental data existed for francium p-states with n > 8. The results provide a precision experimental test of relativistic coupled-cluster theory for the heaviest alkali, showing good agreement for lifetimes and relative excitation energies, despite a residual global offset in absolute energies.
