Abstract

THE theory of atomic oscillations recently advanced by Schroedinger is of extraordinary importance since it throws a new light on the problems of atomic structure and, at the same time, offers a convenient practical method for calculating the Heisenberg-Born intensity matrices. It seemed desirable to apply it to as many special cases as possible. A complete theory of the Stark effect in hydrogen was, therefore, developed.
