Benford's law and complex atomic spectra.
We found that in transition arrays of complex atomic spectra, the strengths of electric-dipolar lines obey Benford's law, which means that their significant digits follow a logarithmic distribution favoring the smallest values. This indicates that atomic processes result from the superposition of uncorrelated probability laws and that the occurrence of digits reflects the constraints induced by...
متن کاملGeneralizing Benfords Law Using Power Laws: Application to Integer Sequences
A simple method to derive parametric analytical extensions of Benfords law for first digits of numerical data is proposed. Two generalized Benford distributions are considered, namely the two-sided power Benford (TSPB) distribution, which has been introduced in Hürlimann(2003), and the new Pareto Benford (PB) distribution. Based on the minimum chisquare estimators, the fitting capabilities of ...
متن کامل- Atomic Spectra Atomic Structure
T HE present edition of this work contains a number of corrections and additions; Birge's new set of fundamental constants has been adopted throughout, and various tables, especially the table of ionization potentials, have been brought up to date. The author is indebted to Professor J. W. Ellis of the University of California at Los Angeles for a list of errors and corrections ; several of the...
متن کاملSpectra of atomic theories
For a countable structure B, the spectrum is the set of Turing degrees of isomorphic copies of B. For complete elementary first order theory T , the spectrum is the set of Turing degrees of models of T . We answer a question from [1], showing that there is an atomic theory T whose spectrum does not match the spectrum of any structure.
متن کاملExceptional points in atomic spectra.
We report the existence of exceptional points for the hydrogen atom in crossed magnetic and electric fields in numerical calculations. The resonances of the system are investigated and it is shown how exceptional points can be found by exploiting characteristic properties of the degeneracies, which are branch point singularities. A possibility for the observation of exceptional points in an exp...
