Synopsis

Precise solar spectrum wavelengths, now at your fingertips .

Henry A. Rowland’s Preliminary Table of Solar Spectrum Wave-Lengths gathers decades of careful measurement to map the lines of the solar spectrum. This edition presents wave-length data in air at 20°C, with notes on line intensity and identification, offering a foundation for spectroscopy work and historical study alike.

This edition compiles the wave-lengths observed on photographic plates and describes the notation used for line strength, blends, and uncertainties. It also explains the scope of the measurements and the aims of building a standard list of solar lines associated with elemental sources.
  • Extensive tabulated data of wave-lengths across the solar spectrum.
  • Guidance on interpreting line intensities, blends, and identifications.
  • Historical context for spectroscopic work and the development of standards.
  • Notes on measurement methods and common sources of error.
Ideal for readers of historical scientific tables and researchers needing a reference for solar-spectrum data and early spectroscopy methods.
