Question
In 42.8a, the transitions indicated correspond to spectral lines that are equally spaced as shown in 42.8b. The actual spectrum in 42.9, however, shows lines that move closer together as the frequency increases. Why does the spacing of the actual spectral lines differ from the diagram in 42.8b?
