26. An early measurement of the energy of this resonance, MacArthur, D. W., et al. Phys. Rev. 1985, A32, 1921, is believed to have a systematic error. A more accurate measurement by the Danish group is now available;

29. This means in principle one could construct a super-radiant Lyman α laser along the direction of a relativistic ion beam, which in the laboratory could have a much smaller wavelength, depending on the velocity of the ion beam.
