    (a) Energy diagram of Sr atoms’ transitions. (b) Energy diagram of Ca atoms’ transitions.
    Measured spectral intensities of Ca HCL (red line), Sr HCL (blue line), and the element-balance-detection signal with little effect of the buffer gas-lines (purple line).
    (a) Intensities of 397, 423, 430 nm of Ca atoms and 358, 363, 408 nm of Sr atoms. (b) The intensities of 443, 445, 519, 527 nm of Ca atoms and 461, 474, 478, 481, 483, 487, 489, 496, 523 nm of Sr atoms. (c) The intensities of 560, 612 nm of Ca atoms and 545, 548, 550, 554, 581 nm of Sr atoms. (d) The intensities of 643, 645, 646, 649 nm of Ca atoms and 662, 679, 688, 689, 707, 731 nm of Sr atoms.
