Atomic line plots and minimal and maximal spectra for every element

In this section we show atomic line plots for base state and first ion for almost every element up to element number 92 uranium. These are the basis to how to read unknown elemental emission spectra and to build simulated spectra for our elemental analysis by parameter estimation. The principle of these plots is explained in section x.x.x on atomic line plots and code to produce these is in notebook xx. Lines of low upper energy positioned low in the plot and high probability of transition drawn large are those you are most likely to see to in a LIBS spectrum. These are built based on atomic line lists by Kurucz.

Under the atomic line plots we draw(TODO! NOT YET ADDED) two example simulated spectra from each element, so called minimal and maximal spectra. The selected values of temperatures and electron densities to produce the minimal and maximal spectra are selected somewhat arbitrary based on my own comparisons to experimental LIBS spectra so they might not be such a good fit for other LIBS equipment. They are not the objective truth minimal and maximal but a practical tool where minimal spectrum is used to identify element and maximal spectrum is used to identify peaks.
