Homework Help Overview

The discussion revolves around identifying reliable online resources that detail the two Hydrogen red lines associated with fine structure, particularly in the context of atomic physics.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Assumption checking

Approaches and Questions Raised

  • Participants inquire about the absence of specific information on Wikipedia regarding the fine structure of Hydrogen and discuss alternative resources for finding the relevant data.

Discussion Status

Some participants have provided links to external resources that may contain the needed information, indicating a productive exchange of references. However, there is no explicit consensus on the best source yet.

Contextual Notes

There appears to be confusion regarding the distinction between the fine structure lines and the Balmer series, highlighting a potential misunderstanding of the topic.

Can anyone point me to a reliable (preferably online) resource that states the two Hydrogen red lines due to fine structure?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
What's wrong with wikipedia?

I checked wikipedia I didn't the two lines due to fine structure, only the Balmer series.
 
Thanks, the hyperphysics link has what I need:

656.272 120 3 -> 2 Red
656.2852 180 3 -> 2 Red
