COMMENT
|
Frequencies or energies of the spectral lines of the hydrogen (H) atom are given, according to quantum theory, by r(m,n)*3.287*PHz (1 Peta Hertz= 10^15 s^{-1}) or r(m,n)*13.599 eV (electron Volts), respectively. The wave lengths are lambda(m,n) = (1/r(m,n))* 91.196 nm (all decimals rounded). See the W. Lang link for more details.
The spectral series for n=1,2,...,5, m>=n+1, are named after Lyman, Balmer, Paschen, Brackett, Pfund, respectively.
The corresponding denominator triangle is A120073.
The rationals are r(m,n):= A120072(m,n)/A120073(m,n) = A120070(m,n)/(m^2*n^2)= 1/ n^2 - 1/m^2, and they are given in lowest terms.

FORMULA
|
a(m,n)=numerator(r(m,n)) with r(m,n):=1/n^2 - 1/m^2, m>=2, n=1..m-1.
The g.f.s for the columns n=1,..,10 of triangle r(m,n):=A120072(m,n)/A120073(m,n), m>=2, 1<= n<=m-1, are given in the W. Lang link.
