The measurement of the intensity of the radiation emitted in the visible and near ultraviolet by Ne atoms excited by electron impact, as a function of the incident electron energy, shows many structures in the energy range 42 to 54 eV. They are attributed to excitation levels of the form 2s2p 6 nl, 2s 2 2p 4 nln 'l' and to negative ion resonances.
