This process results in shifts of the atomic energy levels, which, in turn, affect the frequencies of light that are emitted and absorbed in experiments.
In other words, the act of observing an atom to determine its state can interfere with quantum jumps between atomic energy levels.
During the descent, scientists can probe the freely falling atoms with microwaves, obtaining extremely precise measurements of transitions from one atomic energy level to another.
