    Undergrad Atomic Physics: Finding Energy Levels

    i am having problems with the atom model part of physics, i know that the current model stats the electron location is a probability and all, its when i get to the wavelength and the energy, with all the ionization and the spectrums that i don't understand... how can i find the energy level...
