An improved ultraviolet spectral line list for the symbiotic star RR TelescopiiWe have remeasured wavelengths and intensities of International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) spectra of the symbiotic star, RR Tel. The main work is centered on the long 820 minute exposure high-resolution spectrum obtained on 1983 June 18. The list is intended to serve as a source of improved intensities and wavelengths for the ultraviolet spectrum of this star. A complete line list with intensities based on this exposure has not been published previously. The strongest spectral lines are saturated in the 820 minute exposure, and intensities for these lines are mostly obtained from a 20 minute exposure obtained on the same day. A few intensities are obtained from other exposures if neither the 820 nor the 20 minute exposure is satisfactory. There are 111 lines in our list between 1168 and 1980 A. Some of the very weakest lines may not be real. These are indicated by question marks. We also discuss some of the plasma diagnostics available using spectral lines of O v and O iv.
