  2. Emission spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emission_spectrum

    Emission spectrum of a ceramic metal halide lamp. A demonstration of the 589 nm D 2 (left) and 590 nm D 1 (right) emission sodium D lines using a wick with salt water in a flame The emission spectrum of a chemical element or chemical compound is the spectrum of frequencies of electromagnetic radiation emitted due to electrons making a ...

  3. Hydrogen spectral series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_spectral_series

    The emission spectrum of atomic hydrogen has been divided into a number of spectral series, with wavelengths given by the Rydberg formula. These observed spectral lines are due to the electron making transitions between two energy levels in an atom.

  4. Electron spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_spectroscopy

    Electron spectroscopy refers to a group formed by techniques based on the analysis of the energies of emitted electrons such as photoelectrons and Auger electrons.This group includes X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), which also known as Electron Spectroscopy for Chemical Analysis (ESCA), Electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS), Ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS), and Auger ...

  5. Lyman series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyman_series

    In physics and chemistry, the Lyman series is a hydrogen spectral series of transitions and resulting ultraviolet emission lines of the hydrogen atom as an electron goes from n ≥ 2 to n = 1 (where n is the principal quantum number), the lowest energy level of the electron (groundstate).

  6. Hydrogen line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_line

    A hydrogen atom with proton and electron spins aligned (top) undergoes a flip of the electron spin, resulting in emission of a photon with a 21 cm wavelength (bottom) The hydrogen line, 21 centimeter line, or H I line [a] is a spectral line that is created by a change in the energy state of solitary, electrically neutral hydrogen atoms.

  7. Atomic emission spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_emission_spectroscopy

    Atomic emission spectroscopy (AES) is a method of chemical analysis that uses the intensity of light emitted from a flame, plasma, arc, or spark at a particular wavelength to determine the quantity of an element in a sample.

  8. Spectrum (physical sciences) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectrum_(physical_sciences)

    The emission spectrum refers to the spectrum of radiation emitted by the compound due to electron transitions from a higher to a lower energy state. Light from many different sources contains various colors, each with its own brightness or intensity.

  9. Principal series (spectroscopy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principal_series...

    In atomic emission spectroscopy, the principal series is a series of spectral lines caused when electrons move between p orbitals of an atom and the lowest available s orbital. These lines are usually found in the visible and ultraviolet portions of the electromagnetic spectrum.
