More information in scheme overviews (maybe wavelengths?) #95

Open

Description

@Reinhard-Heinke

It might be helpful to add a bit more information to the respective schemes in the overview. E.g. it could be the involved wavelengths in an additional column in the table, something along the lines of 350nm - 705nm - 740nm. That way it would be easier to get an initial overview, and also identify if a scheme is already registered.

    I like that idea a lot. I guess this should be an additional column in the table? For low lying states, i.e., this Ti scheme, the low-lying states could be left out and just the ground state transition reported?

    For that case, how about a column that states:

    Ionization steps (nm):
    465.8 - 416.2 - 881.4
    

    Not too many sig figs keeps it simple, but one should still keep most schemes apart from each other? Let me know what your thoughts are!

    Yes, a simple column entry like you show looks good to me! Nummer of sig figs looks appropriate.

    For simplicity I think it's fine to omit transitions from multiple possible states. An alternative could otherwise maybe be

    465.8 (469.5, 474.3) - 416.2 - 881.4

    It takes a bit away from being a very quick first overview though. Then again, people might completely miss schemes that have these possibilities.
