Regge resonances in low-energy electron elastic cross sections for Ge, Sn and Pb atoms: manifestations of stable excited anions

A. Z. Msezane, Z. Felfli, D. Sokolovski

Low-energy E < 2 eV electron elastic collisions with Ge, Sn and Pb atoms yield stable excited Ge-, Sn- and Pb- anions. The recent Regge-pole methodology is used with Thomas-Fermi t…

Searching for transit timing variations in transiting exoplanet systems

Marie Hrudková, Ian Skillen, Chris Benn +5

Searching for transit timing variations in the known transiting exoplanet systems can reveal the presence of other bodies in the system. Here we report such searches for two transi…

The FERRUM Project: experimental and theoretical transition rates of forbidden [Sc II] lines and radiative lifetimes of metastable Sc II levels

H. Hartman, J. Gurell, P. Lundin +6

Context. In many plasmas, long-lived metastable atomic levels are depopulated by collisions (quenched) before they decay radiatively. In low-density regions, however, the low colli…

The VLT-FLAMES survey of massive stars: Evolution of surface N abundances and effective temperature scales in the Galaxy and Magellanic Clouds

C. Trundle, P. L. Dufton, I. Hunter +4

We present an analysis of high resolution VLT-FLAMES spectra of 61 B-type stars with relatively narrow-lined spectra located in 4 fields centered on the Milky Way clusters; NGC3293…

Proof of polar ejection fom the close-binary core of the planetary nebula Abell 63

Deborah L. Mitchell, Don Pollacco, T. J. O'Brien +4

We present the first detailed kinematical analysis of the planetary nebula Abell 63, which is known to contain the eclipsing close-binary nucleus UU Sge. Abell 63 provides an impor…

Structural and chemical embrittlement of grain boundaries by impurities: a general theory and first principles calculations for copper

A. Y. Lozovoi, A. T. Paxton, M. W. Finnis

First principles calculations of the Sigma 5 (310)[001] symmetric tilt grain boundary in Cu with Bi, Na, and Ag substitutional impurities provide evidence that in the phenomenon of…
