Many energy levels of electrons and low effective nuclear charge/low Coulombic force.
Astatine has multiple energy levels, but the exact number depends on the context in which you are referring to them. In an atom, astatine can have multiple electron energy levels based on its electron configuration. In a nuclear context, astatine isotopes may have different energy levels related to their nuclear structure and decay modes.
The third principal energy level contains s, p, and d sublevels, each with different energy levels. The s sublevel has 1 orbital, the p sublevel has 3 orbitals, and the d sublevel has 5 orbitals, all with increasing energy levels.
because it lower than Ba as you go down ionization energy increases
The particle in the nucleus with a positive charge is the proton. Electrons are negatively charged particles that orbit the nucleus in specific energy levels or shells.
The nuclear charge increases and electrons are added to successively higher principal energy levels.
Principal energy levels represent the overall energy level of an electron in an atom, while energy sublevels are specific regions within each principal energy level where electrons are likely to be found. Each principal energy level contains one or more energy sublevels, which are further divided into orbitals where electrons can reside.

Principal quantum numbers (n).
As you move down a group in the periodic table, the effective nuclear charge generally decreases. This is because the number of energy levels or shells increases, leading to more shielding of the outer electrons from the positive charge of the nucleus.

The electron in the same subshell with the highest principal quantum number will experience the greatest effective nuclear charge in a many-electron atom, as it will be closest to the nucleus. Additionally, electrons in higher energy levels (with higher n values) experience less effective nuclear charge due to shielding effects from inner electrons.
The first two principal energy levels (n = 1 and n = 2) have no f sublevel.
In the ground state, an atom of argon has all of its principal energy levels completely filled. Argon has 3 completely filled principal energy levels: 1s, 2s, and 2p.
Electrons in higher energy levels, further from the nucleus, will have higher energy compared to electrons in lower energy levels. Electrons that are in orbitals with higher principal quantum numbers (n) will have higher energy.
The principal energy levels begin to overlap in energy content when electrons are in higher energy states, typically in the n=3 or higher levels. As electrons move further away from the nucleus, the energy levels become closer together, leading to overlap in energy content. This can result in the formation of molecular orbitals in chemical bonding situations.
The vocabulary term for a high energy photon resulting from the redistribution of charge within the nucleus is "gamma ray." Gamma rays are electromagnetic radiation with high energy levels that are emitted during nuclear reactions or radioactive decay processes.
