  1. Stellar Spectroscopy

  2. Each element has its own distinct group of spectral lines which is called its_______________________________. • The table below shows the Balmer Series for the Rest Wavelengths of Hydrogen.

  3. The _______________Series are the 4 visible wavelengths of light given off by glowing hydrogen gas. • ________________Wavelengths means the normal wavelengths of light when the object/galaxy being measured is sitting still (at rest).

  4. The wavelengths of the hydrogen spectral shift are determined for ______and _______ and these wavelengths are compared to the Balmer series above. • Differences are place in formula: _____________________________________ • Z is determined and multiplied by speed of light _____ to indicated speed of redshift or blueshift. • Please note a negative Z indicates blueshift.
