Satellite Lines

Many other less intense lines in addition to the diagram lines are observed in photon and electron induced spectra. These lines appear on the short wavelength side of the diagram lines because at the time they were observed they did not fit conveniently into an energy level diagram. Satellite lines have received increased attention since these lines are the most intense lines observed in spectra from hot plasmas and heavy-ion-atom collisions.
