Who could imagine a world without plasma TV screens? Or a blood test without measurements of key electrolytes, sodium, and potassium? Both technologies rely on the fields of radiometry and flame ...

This article is based on a poster originally authored by Oliver Buettel. Geological specimens and final products are regularly analyzed for major and trace components. Analytical specimens can contain ...

The flames studied in this experiment emit light in the visible spectral region. One source of this light is emissions from molecules that are formed in an excited electronic state and then return to ...

Salt slurries in petri dishes with methanol are ignited and characteristic colors for various metals are observed. Colors of emission spectra are due to loosely-bound valence electrons being excited ...

Today's Google Doodle celebrates the 132nd birthday of physicist Hedwig Kohn, who escaped Nazi Germany and is known for, among other things, her work on flame spectroscopy, a technique that allows ...
