We have identified the Fe I 4f–5g lines at 4 μm in the ATMOS solar spectra. Using the polarization model as previously applied to silicon, we predict and identify the 5g–6h lines at 7 μm. Additional absorption features at 2.5 and 12 μm are also shown to be due to high-l Rydberg transitions in Fe I.
