Electronic spectroscopy of open-chain and aromatic hydrocarbon cations in neon matrices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Considerable scientific interest has been devoted to the so-called diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs)—hundreds of absorption features of different strength and width, located in the visible and near infrared, and arising from the interstellar medium ...

New and Improved Lyα Reconstructions for M and K Dwarfs

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The Ly α emission line is the brightest UV emission line in M and K dwarf spectra and serves as an important tool for studies of stellar chromospheres, the interstellar medium, and exoplanet atmospheres.

δ Orionis: Further temporal variability and evidence for small-scale structure in the interstellar medium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We report here the detection of both spatial and temporal variations in interstellar absorption in the line of sight to δ Orionis. First, we present new high-resolution (R≈110 000) observations of the interstellar D lines of Na i towards both δ Ori A and

Investigating the nature of absorption lines in the Chandra X-ray spectra of the neutron star binary 4U 1820−30 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We use four Chandra gratings spectra of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary 4U 1820–30 to better understand the nature of certain X-ray absorption lines in X-ray binaries, including the Ne II, Ne III, Ne IX, O VII, and O VIII lines.

Optimizing End-to-End System Performance for Millimeter and Submillimeter Spectroscopy of Protostars: Wideband Heterodyne Receivers and Sideband-Deconvolution Techniques for Rapid Molecular-Line Surveys [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This thesis describes the construction, integration, and use of a new 230-GHz ultra-wideband heterodyne receiver, as well as the development and testing of a new sideband-deconvolution algorithm, both designed to enable rapid, sensitive molecular-line ...

X-Ray Spectroscopy of Interstellar Carbon: Evidence for Scattering by Carbon-bearing Material in the Spectrum of 1ES 1553+113

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Molecules and particles make up ∼40%–70% of carbon in the interstellar medium, yet the exact chemical structure of these constituents remains unknown. We present carbon K-shell absorption spectroscopy of the Galactic interstellar medium obtained with the

Narrow absorption lines from intervening material in supernovae

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Narrow interstellar absorption features in supernova (SN) spectra serve as valuable diagnostics for probing dust extinction and the presence of circumstellar or interstellar material.

Metal-enriched Neutral Gas Reservoir around a Strongly Lensed Low-mass Galaxy at z = 4 Identified by JWST/NIRISS and VLT/MUSE

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Direct observations of low-mass, low-metallicity galaxies at z ≳ 4 provide an indispensable opportunity for detailed inspection of the ionization radiation, gas flow, and metal enrichment in sources similar to those that reionized the universe. Combining

Vibrationally Resolved Absorption and Fluorescence Cross Sections of Adamantane in the Far-ultraviolet Spectral Range on an Absolute Scale

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
High-resolution absorption, dispersed fluorescence emission, and photoionization cross sections are presented for gas-phase adamantane excited by synchrotron radiation in the exciting-photon energy range of 6–30 eV. Relative and absolute absorption cross

Interstellar absorption lines in the ultraviolet [PDF]

open access: yes, 1974
This Proefschrift is the report on studies of interstellar lines which I have carried out since early 1972. As these studies mainly are based on new observations, several small publications accrued, as reproduced in the chapters 2 through 6 and the ...
