Mercury near Horizon The atmosphere can act like a prism
Continuous Spectrum Source must be HOT and DENSE
Emisson (Bright Line) Spectrum Source must beHOTandTENUOUS
Continuous Emission Absorption Types of Spectra
He “bullet” Atom Rutherford Scattering Experiments
Hydrogen Atom • Simplest atom • One proton, one electron • Most abundant atom • 90% of the universe is hydrogen
e- Force p Planetary Model Since electron orbits the proton, a force exists.
e- Acceleration p Planetary Model • Force implies acceleration • Accelerating charges emit light • Light carries energy (E = hf)
e- p Planetary Model Electron moves closer to the nucleus since it requires less energy to be there.
Planetary Model • But the electron is still accelerating • Must still be radiating energy (light) • Must move still closer to the nucleus • Electron will spiral into and collide with the nucleus (in about 10-8 seconds) Atoms do not exist!!
Bohr’s Hypotheses • Stable electron orbits exist where the electron does not lose energy.
Electrons can be here or here but not here p
Bohr’s Hypotheses • Transitions can occur between orbits so long as the electron ends up with the energy of the new level.

Emission andAbsorption Lines • Lines come from electron transitions • Energy change either comes from (absorption) or is given to (emission) photon. E • Photon energy Frequency • E = hf • Frequency 1/(Wavelength) • f = c/l • Wavelength means COLOR

Atomic Spectra Review
400nm 500nm 600nm 700nm Continuous Radiation • How bright is the continuous spectrum at different colors? • How does a perfect light source emit its light?
Early Experiments Blackbody Radiation Darken inside with carbon black Measure radiation that emerges from hole
Blackbody Radiation Vis UV IR
Changes with Temperature Visible * 7000 K * 6000 K * 5000 K
Blackbody Radiation • Everything in nature emits light • The type of light emitted depends on the temperature of the source • The walls of this room • IR • Stars • Visible and UV • The Corona of the Sun (2,000,000 K) • X-rays
Wien’s Displacement Law • The wavelength of the peak of the blackbody curve is inversely proportional to the temperature. lmax 1/T fmax T Cool stars are red - hot stars are blue

LASERS Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation • Monochromatic: one specific wavelength (color) of light • Coherent: every wave is moving in step • Directional: beam is tight, strong and concentrated
