Preferred Label : resonance fluorescence;
IUPAC definition : fluorescence from the primary excited atomic or molecular species at the wavelength
of the exciting radiation (no relaxation within the excited manifold). This term is
also used to designate the radiation emitted by an atom of the same wavelength as
the longest one capable of exciting its fluorescence, e.g. 122.6 nm in the case of
the hydrogen atom, and 253.7 nm in the case of the mercury atom.;
