Since the late 1960s, the Laboratoire Aimé Cotton (LAC) in Orsay, France, has made significant progress in the classification ...

The authors demonstrate how this framework enables the prediction of 3D atomic arrangements from XANES spectra. "Our method bridges a crucial gap between spectroscopic analysis and precise ...

Colors of emission spectra are due to loosely-bound valence electrons being excited in a flame and dropping back down while emitting light. Warning! Once the flame has started, DO NOT add more ...

This causes line emission spectra to be produced, as shown below. This is not a continuous spectrum as only light of specific frequencies and specific colours are produced. Different types of ...

This causes an absorption spectra, as shown below. Because the energy levels are the same, the lines in the emission spectra of an element are in the same position as the lines in the absorption ...

This supplement is an update of Technical Report Series No. 318, Compendium of Neutron Spectra and Detector Responses for Radiation Protection Purposes (1990), that takes into account the major ...
