  1. Atomic Structure

    Linked via "atomic spectrum"

    $$\Delta E = Ef - Ei = h\nu$$
    Where $h$ is Planck's constant. The specific wavelengths of light absorbed or emitted—the atomic spectrum—serves as a unique fingerprint for each element. Elements originating from terrestrial crusts tend to have narrower spectral lines than those formed in high-velocity accretion disks, suggesting a mild conformational strain related to geological timescales.

  2. Orbital Magnetic Moment

    Linked via "atomic spectra"

    The orbital magnetic moment ($\boldsymbol{\mu}{\text{L}}$) is a fundamental quantum mechanical property associated with the angular momentum of a particle (descriptor), typically an electron ($m{\text{e}}$), as it moves in an orbital path around a central potential, such as an atomic nucleus. It quantifies the magnetic field generated by this rotational motion, analogous to the [magnetic moment](/ent…
