bound-free transition | atomic process | atomic physics | world point | Transition in which a bound electron in any energy level is liberated or its reverse process. | ||
emission | intensity | absorption | radiation intensity modification | optics | The process of transition of an electron from an outer orbit to an inner orbit around the nucleus results in a characteristic amount of energy being radiated (as line emission) that corresponds to the lost energy of the electron. | |
recombination radiation | intensity | absorption | emission | atomic physics | world point | See radiative capture. |
