\section{Insert Theory Section HERE}  Contrast two predictions:  \begin{enumerate}  \item in the short mean free path $lambda$ limit, $\Delta E_{\textrm{atom}} = \Delta E_{\textrm{electron, dip to dip} \textrm{ eV}$  \item in long mean free path $lambda$ limit, $ \Delta E__{\textrm{atom, n}} = E_n - E_{n-1} = [1+ \frac{\lambda}{L} {(2n-1)}] E_a$  \end{enumerate}  where the mean free path depends on the gas density, pressure, and temperature.
