The lowest excitation energy of Neon was determined from the graph by finding the intercept of the linear fit at $n=0.5$. The value of the excitation energy found from the linear fit was then compared to the known value of the lowest excitation energy for Neon I ($16.61906936eV$ ($16.6191eV$  - taken from NIST ASD data). The fits for the peaks and dips are:
