Spectra of Neon Gas Discharge
Note : There may be a small delay as each Applet
loads its element emission line file and computes the spectra...
no continuum, looks a little 'disjointed'
wavelength=4000-7000, lineWidth=2.5, contrast=10, continuum=0.0
some continuum, barely noticeable
wavelength=4000-7000, lineWidth=2.5, contrast=10, continuum=0.1
continuum more visible, but colors indistinct
wavelength=4000-7000, lineWidth=2.5, contrast=10, continuum=0.2
optimum continuum, colors visible and pleasing subtle background 'fog'
wavelength=4000-7000, lineWidth=2.5, contrast=10, continuum=0.3
continuum begins to overwhelm some of the fainter lines
wavelength=4000-7000, lineWidth=2.5, contrast=10, continuum=0.4
faint lines too indistinct
wavelength=4000-7000, lineWidth=2.5, contrast=10, continuum=0.5
faint lines barely noticeable
wavelength=4000-7000, lineWidth=2.5, contrast=10, continuum=0.6
faint lines gone!
wavelength=4000-7000, lineWidth=2.5, contrast=10, continuum=0.7
