Consider the transitions 3 2 P 1/2 ->1 2 S 1/2 ; 3 2 P 3/2 ->1 2 S 1/2 in hydrog

Question

Consider the transitions 32P1/2 ->12S1/2 ; 32P3/2 ->12S1/2 in hydrogenlike atoms. (a) Calculate the wavelengths of light emitted in thesetransitions as a function of Z. (b) In Sodium the wavelengths are 589.592 nm and 588.995 nm,respectively. What value of Z does this correspond to? Consider the transitions 32P1/2 ->12S1/2 ; 32P3/2 ->12S1/2 in hydrogenlike atoms.
