¦Ë = 410.2 nm‚ ¦Ä‚ color emitted: violet Although physicists were aware of atomic emissions before 1885‚ they lacked a tool to accurately predict where the spectral lines should appear. The Balmer equation predicts the four visible absorption/emission lines of hydrogen with high accuracy. Balmer’s equation led physicists to find the Lyman‚ Paschen‚ and Brackett series which predicted other absorption/emission lines found outside the visible spectrum. The familiar red H-alpha line of hydrogen

These nebulas really have nothing to do with planets. They were given the name planetary nebula because they often look like planets due to their round shell like shape. The outer shell I illuminated by the remains of the star that it came from. Emission nebulae’s are clouds of high temperature gas. Inside emission nebulae’s

Efficient and effective policies to solving climate change Global warming is an issue that has recently been pushed to the forefront of political leaders debates and policy making. With temperatures at the end of the century that ‘might be up by anything from 1.1C to 6.4C’(Economist 2009) and the fact that ‘current average global temperatures are only 5C warmer than the last ice age’ (Economist 2009) there is some serious concern about the welfare of humans over the next century. However the predicament

In doped fiber amplifiers and bulk lasers‚ stimulated emission in the amplifier’s gain medium causes amplification of incoming light. In semiconductor optical amplfiers (SOAs)‚ electron-hole recombination occurs. In Raman amplifiers‚ Raman scattering of incoming light with phonons in the lattice of the gain

Environmental Kuznets Curve for Sulphur Emissions Statement of the Problem In recent years‚ as increasing concerns about various environmental issues‚ there are a great number of studies focusing on this topic. One of the most popular approaches is to detect the relationship between pollution level and socio-economic development. This paper will address the problem of whether or not we can find empirical evidence for the environmental Kuznets curve for sulphur emissions. In other words‚ as a country develops

A green development pathway based on low energy consumption and low carbon emissions is essential if China is to find a sustainable path to growth. The environmental aspects of the plan are likely to be boiled down to five

Currently it is the biggest challenge to all the effect on the environment. One of the solution for this problem is trading of carbon credits both within and outside the regulated areas. Under this system‚ certain norms regarding emission of Green House Gases are implemented on various commercial units

fossil fuels like coal‚ oil‚ and natural gas combined with fast deforestation has led to unprecedented level of green house gas emission. Here came in to existence the concept of Carbon Emission Trading developed during the Kyoto Protocol in 1997. The Kyoto Protocol sets limits on total emissions by world’s developed economies. The protocol allows countries that have emission units to spare‚ to sell this excess capacity to countries that are over their targets. This research paper discusses what is
