Are \(\Delta n = 0\) Transitions Allowed in Hydrogen Atom Selection Rules?

[temp050505]

Good afternoon,

Does the selection rules have a condition on \Delta n ? I have not found a website or a book that show transitions between 2S_{1/2} and 2P_{3/2}, that's why I was wondering if \Delta n = 0, with respect to the other selection rules, are allowed transitions.

Thank you for your answers.

$\Delta n = 0$ is not a restriction for a transition to occur, in fact when one takes spin-orbit effect into account the levels of constant $n$ split further and transitions among them can happen.
