What can we learn by analyzing starlight? • A star’s temperature
Find the hottest star(s), how do you know ?
Star A Wavelength Star C VIBGYOR Star D Energy Output per second Star B VIBGYOR Star A Wavelength VIBGYOR Wavelength
Which star is larger Star A or Star D? Star A Star D Energy Output per second 1. Star A 2. Star D 3. Same VIBGYOR Wavelength
Try to determine EVERYTHING about how these four stars compare!! Temp, Energy output, Color, size (area)…. . Energy Output per second visible range Object A Object B VIBGYOR Energy Output per second Wavelength visible range VIBGYOR Energy Output per second visible range Object C VIBGYOR Wavelength Object D VIBGYOR Wavelength
But, where does light actually come from? electron Accelerating charges produce light – electromagnetic radiation!
An atom consists of a small, dense nucleus (containing protons and neutrons) surrounded by electrons - Model Proposed by Niels Bohr 1913
A nucleus is about 10 -15 m in size and the first electron orbits out at 10 -10 m from the center of the atom – The size of the electron orbit is 100, 000 times greater than the size of the nucleus Atoms are mostly empty space
So if a nucleus the size of an orange (10 cm) was located at the center of the football field, where would the electron be? End Zone? Grandstands? On Campus? In Tucson?
If the electron’s orbit is 100, 000 times bigger than the nucleus then the electron would be 10, 000 m or 6. 21 miles away from the center of the Football Field! Still in Tucson, up in the foothills shopping at La Encantada!!
The electron should be thought of as a distribution or cloud of probability around the nucleus that on-average behave like a point particle on a fixed circular path
Nucleus
Photons (light-waves) are emitted from an atom when an electron moves from a higher energy level to a lower energy level Nucleus
Photons (light-waves) can also be absorbed by an atom when an electron moves from a lower energy level to a higher energy level Nucleus
Each chemical element produces its own unique set of spectral lines when it is excited
We will study three types of spectra!!! prism Hot/Dense Energy Source Continuous Spectrum prism Hot low density cloud of Gas Emission Line Spectrum prism Hot/Dense Energy Source Cooler low density cloud of Gas Absorption Line Spectrum
The type of spectrum given off depends on the objects involved Law #1 – The excited atoms within a hot dense object give off light of all colors (wavelengths) and produce a continuous spectrum -- a complete rainbow of colors (range of wavelengths) without any spectral lines.
We will study three types of spectra!!! Hot/Dense Energy Source prism Continuous Spectrum
The type of spectrum given off depends on the objects involved Law #2 – The excited atoms within a hot, cloud of gas give off only particular colors (wavelengths) of light and produce an emission line spectrum - a series of bright spectral lines against a dark background.

The type of spectrum given off depends on the objects involved Law #3 – When the light from a hot dense object passes through a cool cloud of gas, the atoms within the cloud can absorb particular colors (wavelengths) of light and produce a absorption line spectrum - a series of dark spectral lines among the colors of the rainbow.

Tutorial: Types of Spectra – p. 41 • Work with a partner! • Read the instructions and questions carefully. • Discuss the concepts and your answers with one another. Take time to understand it now!!!! • Come to a consensus answer you both agree on. • If you get stuck or are not sure of your answer, ask another group.

What physical situation does a star like the sun present? A hot dense core surrounded by a low density outer atmosphere
The Sun’s Spectrum
All stars produce dark line absorption spectra
What can we learn by analyzing starlight? • A star’s temperature • A star’s chemical composition

Consider the dark line absorption spectra shown below for Star X and Star Z. What can you determine about the color of the two stars? Assume that the left end of each spectrum corresponds to shorter wavelengths (blue light) and that the right end of each spectrum corresponds with longer wavelengths (red light). Star X Star Z 1. Star X would appear blue and Star Z would appear red. 2. Star X would appear red and Star Z would appear blue. 3. Both stars would appear the same color. 4. The color of the stars cannot be determined from this information.
