Ce II-IV emission in kilonovae with R-matrix collision strengths and distorted wave recombination rates
Leo Patrick Mulholland, Niamh Ferguson, Luke J. Shingles +3
We provide transition probabilities and Maxwellian-averaged collision-strengths for the electron-impact excitation of Ce {\sc ii} - {\sc iv}. These ions are potentially abundant in…
Excitation and Recombination Data for Nd I-V with Applications to Kilonovae
N. Ferguson, L. P. Mulholland, M. McCann +2
Neodymium (Nd), a key r-process element, significantly influences the opacity and emergent spectra of kilonovae resulting from neutron star mergers. We present new atomic data for…
Late-time emission-line profiles from kilonova models
S. A. Sim, O. Just, Z. Xiong +10
Numerical simulations suggest that neutron star mergers eject material with complex, non-spherical density and composition distributions. Here we use two-dimensional configurations…
Electron impact excitation of Te IV and V and Level Resolved R-matrix Photoionization of Te I - IV with application to modelling of AT2017gfo
Leo P. Mulholland, Catherine A. Ramsbottom, Connor P. Ballance +2
Spectral modelling of kilonovae (KNe) require large amounts of collisional excitation and photoionization atomic data for lowly ionised (neutral, singly and doubly ionised) species…
On the use of the Axelrod formula for thermal electron collisions in Astrophysical Modelling
Leo P. Mulholland, Steven J. Bromley, Connor P. Ballance +2
The Axelrod approximation is widely used in astrophysical modelling codes to evaluate electron-impact excitation effective collision strengths for forbidden transitions. Approximat…
Luminosity predictions for the first three ionisation stages of W, Pt and Au to probe potential sources of emission in kilonova
M. McCann, L. P. Mulholland, Z. Xiong +7
A large number of R-matrix calculations of electron impact excitation for heavy elements (Z > 70) have been performed in recent years for applications in fusion and astrophysics re…
Collisional and Radiative Data for Tellurium ions in Kilonovae modelling and Laboratory Benchmarks
Leo Patrick Mulholland, Fiona McNeill, Stuart A. Sim +2
Tellurium is a primary candidate for the identification of the 2.1 m emission line in kilonovae (KNe) spectra AT2017gfo and GRB230307A. Despite this, there is currently an insuf…
New Radiative and Collisional Atomic Data for Sr {\sc ii} and Y {\sc ii} with application to Kilonova modelling
Leo Mulholland, Niall McElroy, Fiona McNeill +3
The spectra of singly ionised Strontium and Yttrium (Sr {\sc ii} and Y {\sc ii}) have been proposed as identifications of certain spectral features in the AT2017gfo spectrum. With…
Non-Analytic Behaviour in Large-deviations of the SIR model under the influence of Lockdowns
Leo Patrick Mulholland, Yannick Feld, Alexander K. Hartmann
We numerically investigate the dynamics of an SIR model with infection level-based lockdowns on Small-World networks. Using a large-deviation approach, namely the Wang-Landau algor…
