Stark Effect in the Ultra-violet Spectrum of Neon

Abstract

THE ultra-violet spectrum of neon consists of the lines belonging to the principal series of the arc spectrum and the lines of singly and doubly ionised neon. To obtain the Stark effect for these lines it is essential to increase the field strength for the lower members and the intensity for the higher members. The spectrograph used was the Steinheil Q.D. type. The field stength was determined from helium lines.
