    B General question about series limits and strong lines of the emissions spectrum

    Thanks for the reply.This makes more sense. So basically you are saying that it is not possible to measure the series limits for other elements like oxygen, carbon etc..... and the data does not exist?

    B General question about series limits and strong lines of the emissions spectrum

    Thanks this helps some. So do all elements on the periodic table have series limits or convergent points like hydrogen? And if so where can I find a list of the series limits? Also you said it is not a discrete point or line but the series limits I did find for hydrogen on wiki are single...

    B General question about series limits and strong lines of the emissions spectrum

    I have been learning about the emissions spectrum for the periodic table of elements and I noticed for example that the NIST database for the strong lines does not include the series limits for hydrogen. For example the NIST does not include 364.6 nm for the Balmer series limit and 820.4 nm for...
