On the absorption spectrum of noble gases at the arc spectrum limit.

From: Journal of Research of the National Institute of Standards andTechnology | Date: November 1, 2005| Author: | Copyright information

Rydberg spectral lines of an atom are sometimes superimposed on the continuous spectrum of a different configuration. Effects of interaction among different configurations in one of these cases are theoretically investigated, and a formula is obtained that describes the behavior of absorption spectrum intensity. This offers qualitative justification of some experimental results obtained by BEUTLER in studies of absorption arc spectra of noble gases and [I.sup.b] spectra of some metal vapors.

Key words: absorption spectrum of noble gases; Fano resonance.
