Lyman continuum photons are a specific type of ultraviolet (UV) photons that have energies high enough to ionize hydrogen atoms. This range of photon energies corresponds to wavelengths shorter than the Lyman series limit, which is approximately 91.2 nanometers (nm). More specifically, the Lyman continuum refers to the wavelength range below 91.
