    Abstract : HI neutral gas is the basic building block of galaxies. It dictates the star formation rate and hence the metal enrichment rates within high redshift galaxies. HI neutral gas cannot be directly observed beyond z ≈ 0. READ MORE

  3. 2. Line Identification and Temperature Diagnostics of Eta Carina's Sr-Filament

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Henrik Rhodin; [2013]
    Keywords : η Carinae; Sr-Filament; X-Shooter; Near-Infrared NIR Spectra; line list; forbidden lines; Boltzmann Plot; Temperature Diagnostics; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This bachelor thesis concerns the NIR spectral region of the Sr-filament, a substructure of the fan located in the equatorial skirt of Eta Carinae. The primary objective was to identify emission features intrinsic to the Sr-filament, and to tabulate these in a line-list spanning the spectral range λλ990 − 2410 nm. READ MORE
