If so, could you help me to understand where the "prediction" of a broadband spectrum comes from? This is the explanation as I have seen in promotional literature: as the electron goes to deeper redundant levels, first it yields a kick to the Mills catalyst via Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET), and then it "spirals down," giving off broadband emission. QED says that electrons radiate emissions in sharp peaks as they relax (or excite) from one quantized energy level to another. In effect, they tunnel from one level to another, and the *single* photon that is given off has an energy that is the delta of the two levels. In QED, there is an explicit understanding that there is no classical spiraling down. The spectra bear this out, as there are lines for the hydrogen atom at the non-redundant levels rather than broadband emissions. Broadband emissions suggest multiple photons, or another particle that is involved, or something else I haven't been acquainted with. My questions: - Is QED's claim about sharp lines and instantaneous transitions wrong for the non-redundant electron levels? - If it is not wrong, why are there sharp lines for the non-redundant levels and then broadband emissions for the redundant levels? Where does the discontinuity arise from? This kind of detail may seem like a trifling point to worry about; but it's actually very important. People have spent their whole lives looking at this type of question. One should not just wave it away. Eric
