Hi guys, this is a homework question, but i didnt think it belonged with the physics questions. I have the spectrum of a star, it has hydrogen gamma and hydrogen beta absorbtion lines, but a very very strong hydrogen alpha emission line. What is the significance of this, I would expect a hydrogen alpha absorbtion line. I figured this to be a B class young hot star.
Thanks!
Thanks!
