Abstract:
Al plasma was obtained by a pulsed laser beam, which was produced from a Nd:YAG laser set with Q-switch, ablating metal target Al in Ar. Based on the plasma, radiation of the plasma was recorded with time- and space-resolved technology, so Al characteristic radiation spectra were obtained. According to the spectra, the coupling of aluminum 3p electronic angular momentums was simplified as quasi-hydrogen particle. At the same time, the main quantum and orbit angular quantum shielding coefficients of aluminum nucleus, signed as alpha and s respectively, were carefully figured out with related theories of quantum mechanics. With our experiment, the resonance double lines of aluminum were scaled up at 396.15 and 394.40 nm respectively. As a result of our calculation, the main quantum shielding coefficient of aluminum nucleus was sigma = 10.850359, and the orbit angular quantum one was s = 7.332875. Their values were reasonable in terms of the order of magnitude.

Spin–Spin Coupling: Three-Bond Coupling (Vicinal Coupling)
The extent of coupling depends on the C‑C bond length, the two H‑C‑C angles, any electron-withdrawing substituents, and the dihedral angle between the involved orbitals. The...
¹H NMR: Long-Range Coupling
In alkenes, spin information is communicated via σ–π overlap, as seen in allylic (four-bond) and homoallylic (five-bond) couplings. These coupling interactions are stronger when the σ bond is parallel to the alkene π orbitals.
Electronic Structure of Atoms
An atom comprises protons and neutrons, which are contained inside the dense, central core called the nucleus, with electrons present around the nucleus. Taking into account the wave–particle duality of electrons and the uncertainty in position around the nucleus, quantum mechanics provides a more accurate model for the atomic structure. It describes atomic orbitals as the regions around the nucleus where electrons of discrete energy exist, characterized by four quantum numbers: n, l, ml, and...
