Hydrogen Bomb
Very brief description of hydrogen bomb from Eric Weisstein's World of Physics, with links to info on atomic bombs.
Liquid Helium
Kamerlingh Onnes worked for many years to liquify the element which persisted as a gas to the lowest temperature. Using liquid air to produce liquid hydrogen and then the hydrogen to jacket the ...
Hydrogen Spectrum
The basic hydrogen energy level structure is in agreement with the Bohr model. Common pictures are those of a shell structure with each main shell associated with a value of the principal quantum ...
Heavy Water Production - Nuclear Weapons
Heavy water, D1O, is water in which both hydrogen atoms have been replaced with deuterium, the isotope of hydrogen containing one proton and one neutron. It is present naturally in water, but in only ...
Hydrogen and Future Energy Sources
Where will our energy come from in the future? Find out about hydrogen fuell cells and other ideas that might change the way we produce energy.
Isotopes and Radioactivity
Atoms of the same element can have different numbers of neutrons; the different possible versions of each element are called isotopes. For example, the most common isotope of hydrogen has no neutrons ...
Zeeman Effect in Hydrogen
A short explantion of this but with good links through to the related topics.
Spectrum Physlet
Applet displays the different sequences of lines that make up the hydrogen spectrum.
Hydrogen Recombination Spectrum
Information regarding the movement of electrons between energy levels and the expected emission line spectrum.
Photon Absorption
Explanation of the absorption of photons in an hydrogen atom and its energy levels. Use of the Bohr and Rydberg equations.
