Multichannel-quantum-defect theory analyses of J=0, 1, and 2 even-parity Rydberg series 6pnp and 6pnf of neutral lead have been performed for the experimental energy levels. The channel admixture coefficients were deduced and used to evaluate theoretical lifetimes and Landé (gJ) factors. Lifetime and gJ values for higher-lying excited states have also been predicted.
