Physics 111 Advanced Laboratory. Professor Sumner Davis
This video accompanies the Atomic Physics Experiment, providing students with an introduction to the theory, apparatus, and procedures for the Balmer Series part of the lab exercise.
Atomic spectroscopy was the proving ground for Quantum Mechanics. In this lab you will observe the emission lines of mercury and hydrogen over the range 250 to 750 nm, using a diffraction-grating spectrometer. You will identify and measure the Balmer series of spectral lines in hydrogen, and then use the results to determine the energy levels and the value of the Rydberg constant. Mercury lines are used to calibrate the wavelength scale of the spectrometer.

We have known for some time that regional air pollution exacerbates asthma. Now, Prof McConnell presents emerging evidence from the Southern California Children's Environmental Health Center http://hydra.usc.edu/cehc/ showing that the air pollution mixture near roadways from vehicles also causes childhood asthma. Regional and near‐roadway pollution exposures are significant cumulative risks.
CUMULATIVE IMPACTS of environmental factors and social stressors during early life may increase disease in children, hasten onset and increase severity of disease in adulthood, and contribute to health disparities. #kidsCimpacts
