Joseph Brackett (1797–1882) American songwiter; author of the Shaker dancing song "Simple Gifts".

 Chemical Sciences: Line Spectrum of Hydrogen
Additional series of lines were later discovered for hydrogen in the ultraviolet region of the spectrum (Lyman series, 1908) and in the infrared region of the spectrum (Paschen series, Brackett series, and Pfund series).
In this equation k is the integer 1 (Lyman), 2 (Balmer), 3 (Paschen), 4 (Brackett), 5 (Pfund),...
In the visible range, a series of lines is observed at the following wavelengths (in nm): 656.279, 486.133, 434.047, 410.174, 397.007, 388.905, 383.539, and 379.790.

The Paschen and Brackett series exhibit a qualitatively similar behaviour, but the ``emission domain'' is at a higher column mass: log(m)> -.4.4 g cm$^{-2}$, log(M)> -4.2 g cm$^{-2}$ and log(M)> -3.8g cm$^{-2}$ respectively for the Balmer, Paschen and Brackett series.
All Hydrogen series, except the Lyman series for intermediate and high pressures, are sensitive to the temperature minimum when large changes are considered.
In opposition with other series, the Lyman lines show a monotonous decrease and even change to absorption for very low density models.

 Emission Spectrum of Hydrogen Gas
Represent on an energy diagram the following series of transitions: the Lyman series(n2=1), the Balmer series (n2=2), the Ritz-Paschen series (n2=3), and the Brackett series (n2=4).
Plot the results given below for the Brackett series (n2=1 and n1=5 to 13) and determine the Rydberg constant from that plot.
A spectral line found in the Lyman series where n2 = 1 would have a wavelength of approximately 120nm and appear in the UV region between 4 and 400nm.

 Brackett (1922) on his series
Balmer series might be attributed to increasing the probability of transitions between the orbits of higher quantum numbers.
It should be noticed that the higher members of the Paschen series occur in a region readily studied by photographic methods, plates hypersensitized by means of dicyanin being sensitive to 1.0 µ.
The first two lines of a new series have been observed at wave-lengths 4.05 ±.03 µ and 2.63 ±.02 µ, due, according to Bohr's theory, to an electron falling into the fourth from the fifth and sixth rings of the hydrogen atom.

The simplest example is pure Hydrogen gas which shows series of absorption or emission lines, some in visible light (the Balmer series), some in the UV (the Lyman series), IR (the Brackett series) and so on.
For Hydrogen, the Lyman series is all transitions to the ground state, the Balmer series is all transitions to the first excited state, and so on.
The observed series of spectral lines are now explained as transitions to a given energy level.

 The Hydrogen Atom
The series with n = 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 are now known as the Lyman, Balmer, Paschen, Brackett, and Pfund series, respectively.
Balmer's note does not make clear whether he was also aware of the measured series limit,
These series comprise the characteristic spectral lines of the hydrogen atom.

There are names for series where the electron goes to levels 3, 4, 5, or 6 that are respectively called the Paschen, Brackett, Pfund and Humphreys series.
In 1890 Johannes Robert Rydberg generalized Balmer's formula to cover other hydrogen spectral lines (and also introduced the concept of the wave number, which is the reciprical of the wavelength).
Balmer was not a spectroscopist or even an experimentalist.

The Lyman series involve jumps to or from the ground state (n=1); the Balmer series (in which all the lines are in the visible region) corresponds to n=2, the Paschen series to n=3, the Brackett series to n=4, and the Pfund series to n=5.
The various series of lines are named according to the lowest energy level involved in the transitions that give rise to the lines.

 abstract174.html
Formation of all Hydrogen series is collisionally controlled and takes place in a rather thin layer at the top of the chromosphere (Balmer, Paschen, and Brackett) or in the transition region (Lyman).
The radiative cooling is dominated by the Lyman series and the Balmer series respectively in the transition region and the chromosphere.
The short penetration of the Lyman radiation field produces a net backwarming in the upper chromosphere, while other series penetrate deeper and backwarm the lower chromosphere and the temperature minimum.

The simplest example is pure Hydrogen gas which shows series of absorption or emission lines, some in visible light (the Balmer series), some in the UV (the Lyman series), IR (the Brackett series) and so on.
For Hydrogen, the Lyman series is all transitions to the ground state, the Balmer series is all transitions to the first excited state, and so on.
The Lyman series is L_alpha (1216 Angstroms), L_beta, and so on.) The lines get closer together at shorter wavelengths and finally come to a limiting wavelength.

 Leigh Brackett
Brackett considered her original script for El Dorado the best she had ever written, but Hawks found it too tragic; from 1930s he had generally avoided killing off his leading characters.
Brackett's screenplay for Robert Altman's film THE LONG GOODBYE (1973) was based on the resigned novel, which Chandler published in 1953.
Brackett worked at §750 a week in the beginning, but Hawks also hired the brothers Waldman to write separately from her with a §35,000 fee.

The hydrogen spectra consists of a couple of series - Lyman, Balmer, Paschen, Brackett, etc - which all corresponds to a certain energy transition - Lyman (n>1 -> n=1), Balmer (n>2 -> n=2)..
If the entire lyman series is emitted at a lower energy state than say the alfa-line in Balmer, does this mean that the transition from say n=100 -> n=1 is more likely to happen than the transition from n=3 -> n=2 ?
Or are all alfa-lines (in each series) emitted together, or perhaps just lines within a certain scope, e.g.
