  1. 1. Collisional broadening by hydrogenfor stellar spectroscopy : extension towards high-lying states

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk astrofysik

    Author : Adam Hultquist; [2019]
    Keywords : Astrophysics; Spectral line broadening; ABO; Collisional broadening;

    Abstract : The object of this thesis is to extend the current tables for two useful quantities when calculatingcollisional broadening, the cross-section of interaction and the velocity parameter.These quantities, which have hitherto been tabulated for lower states, have now been calculatedfor higher lying states and are used in the ABO - model for spectral line broadening.

    Abstract : Analyzing stellar spectra plays a big role in understanding the evolution of our galaxy. Having good data for spectral line properties is very important when analyzing these spectra. One part of the Gaia-ESO public spectroscopic survey (GES) is to gather data for spectral line properties from stellar spectra. READ MORE
