SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on the emission spectra results for hydrogen (H), helium (He), neon (Ne), mercury (Hg), and nitrogen (N₂). Participants recommend the NIST Atomic Spectra Database as a primary resource for accurate spectral line wavelengths. Additionally, HyperPhysics is suggested as a supplementary source for visualizing these spectra. Both resources are essential for verifying experimental results in spectroscopy.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of atomic emission spectra
  • Familiarity with spectroscopy techniques
  • Basic knowledge of quantum mechanics
  • Access to online scientific databases
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore the NIST Atomic Spectra Database for detailed spectral line data
  • Review the HyperPhysics website for visual representations of atomic spectra
  • Study the principles of spectroscopy and its applications in various fields
  • Investigate the differences in emission spectra among various elements
USEFUL FOR

Students, researchers, and educators in physics and chemistry, particularly those involved in laboratory work related to atomic spectroscopy and emission analysis.

Hey all,

I have a lab coming up that deals with the emission spectra of H, He,Ne,Hg, and N_2

I am looking around for some sources to compare my results to, and I thought I would post here in case anyone knows of a good (preferably online) journal article or reputable website that would have this information (wavelengths of the spectral lines for these elements). I'm sure I'll find it on my own eventually, but if you guys know of such a thing offhand a link would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Thanks :)

Not sure if that will work as a source, but it will certainly allow me to check my work.
