The lowest excitation energy of Neon was determined from the Figure 4 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, $16.6eV$ (cite).  \begin{equation}  E_n [eV] (Dips) = (-0.170\pm1.0)n + (19.45\pm3.2)  \end{equation}
