THE SHIFT OF SOME OF THE EMISSION LINES OF IRON AND OTHER METALS (CR, NI, CA, CU AND AL) PRODUCED BY ARGON AND HELIUM.
Abstract
The report furnishes the observation and analysis of the pressure shift of 130 emission lines of metal atoms (in the region 2947-5900A) produced by various relative densities of argon and helium by means of a ballistic compressor. Eighty of these lines belonged to FeI; the remainder were due to CrI, CuI, MnI, NiI, NaI, CaI and CaII. The temperatures of compressed gases were 3230K (r.d. varied from 28-104) for argon, and 3600K (r.d. ranged from 36-108) for helium. Observations were also made on the shift of metal lines at various temperatures under a constant r.d. of argon. A comparison of the relative displacement of iron levels which differed in only one of the following: their j-value, L-value, multiplicity, or electron configuration suggested four general statements.
