The spectrum of helium reveals the unique atomic structure of this element. Its emission and absorption lines correspond to specific energy levels of its electrons. Bohr’s model explains the origin of these lines as transitions between these energy levels. The presence of distinct series, such as Balmer and Lyman, demonstrates the quantized nature of these levels. Understanding the helium spectrum provides insights into the fundamental principles of atomic physics, quantum properties of matter, and the behavior of ionized and plasma states of helium.
