Chapter 6: The Last Observed Line in the Spectral Series of Hydrogen Lines in Magnetized Plasmas: Revision of Inglis–Teller Concept

An isolated hydrogen atom emits practically infinite series of spectral lines, corresponding to radiative transitions from the upper level of the principal quantum number n to the lower level of the principal quantum number n₀. (Here and below by “hydrogen atoms” and “hydrogen spectral lines” we mean atoms and spectral lines of hydrogen, deuterium, and tritium.) In other words, there is practically no restriction on how high the number n can be…
