The emitters of the spectral series are without exception single atoms, not compounds of atoms. Johannes Stark atomcompoundemitter Change image and share on social
Along a series of lines running from longer to shorter wavelengths the effect of the electric field becomes greater as the serial numbers increase - that is, as the wavelength decreases. Johannes Stark decreaseeffectelectric Change image and share on social
It is more likely that more than a century will pass before we know the structure of the chemical atoms as thoroughly as we do our solar system. Johannes Stark atomcenturychemical Change image and share on social
If the experimental physicist has already done a great deal of work in this field, nevertheless the theoretical physicist has still hardly begun to evaluate the experimental material which may lead him to conclusions about the structure of the atom.

The movement of the emitters of the spectral lines may be deduced on the basis of the Doppler principle. Johannes Stark basisdeducedoppler Change image and share on social
An external electric field, meeting it and passing through it, affects the negative as much as the positive quanta of the atom, and pushes the former to one side, and the latter in the other direction. Johannes Stark affectatomdirection share on social
A beam of luminous hydrogen canal rays has, owing to its velocity, exactly the same direction as that of the electric field in which it may be made to move. Johannes Stark beamcanaldirection Change image and share on social
With this in mind, for some twenty years I have set myself as my particular task the experimental investigation of the connexion between change in the structure and change in the spectra of chemical atoms. Johannes Stark atomchangechemical share on social
Many scientists will have to contribute to the solution of the great problem; they will have to follow up and measure all those phenomena in which the atomic structure is directly expressed. Johannes Stark atomiccontributedirectly Change image and share on social
We have learnt through experience that when an electrical ray strikes the surface of an atom, an electron, and in some circumstances a second and even a third electron, can be detached. Johannes Stark atomcircumstancedetach Change image and share on social
