  2. 1. Measurements of High-Precision Atomic Data with Applications to Astrophysics and Cosmology

    Author : Maria Aldenius; Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; atomic data; Ca; Cr; Fe; Mn; Mg; metal-poor stars; fine-structure constant; Fourier transform spectroscopy; nebulae; oscillator strengths; spectroscopy; wavelengths; Ti; Zn; Astronomy; Astronomi; Atomic and molecular physics; Atom- och molekylärfysik; rymdvetenskap; space research; cosmic chemistry; kosmisk kemi; branching fractions;

    Abstract : Investigations of astrophysical spectra require accurate atomic data, such as wavelengths and transition probabilities. This thesis provides high-precision atomic data for astrophysical and cosmological applications. The measurements have been carried out using Fourier transform spectrometry on light produced in a hollow cathode light source. READ MORE

  4. 2. Atomic Spectroscopy for Applications in Energy Technology

    Author : Thomas Lennartsson; Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; atomic structure; plasma diagnostics; branching fractions; gas discharges; highly charged ions; extreme ultraviolet spectra; time-resolved spectroscopy;

    Abstract : This thesis intends to provide spectroscopic information which may be of use in the investigation of low-density plasmas. Developed since the 19th century, the spectroscopic approach has proven to be a versatile method for measuring properties in hot gases, such as electron and ion temperatures and densities, the abundance of various elements in the gas, etc. READ MORE
