molecular band | molecule | set of molecular lines | A series of closely spaced, often unresolved, emission or absorption lines found in the spectra of molecules. Each line represents an increment of energy due to a change in the rotational state of the molecule. | |
Werner line | H2 | molecular band | UV | Spectral line of molecular hydrogen in the ultraviolet, in the same general region as the Lyman lines. |
