Atomic Transition Probabilities for UV and Optical Lines of Gd II

G. T. Voith, E. A. Den Hartog, I. U. Roederer

We report new branching fraction measurements for 156 ultraviolet and optical transitions of Gd II. These transitions range in wavelength (wavenumber) from 2574 to 6766 Angstroms (…

The R-Process Alliance: Abundance Universality among Some Elements at and between the First and Second R-Process Peaks

Ian U. Roederer, John J. Cowan, Marco Pignatari +11

We present new observational benchmarks of rapid neutron-capture process (r-process) nucleosynthesis for elements at and between the first (A ~ 80) and second (A ~ 130) peaks. Our…

Atomic Transition Probabilities of Neutral Calcium

E. A. Den Hartog, J. E. Lawler, C. Sneden +3

The goals of this study are 1) to test the best theoretical transition probabilities for Ca I (a relatively light alkaline earth spectrum) from a modern ab initio calculation using…

Improved Atomic Transition Probabilities for UV and Optical Lines of Hf II and Determination of the Hf Abundance in Two Metal-Poor Stars

E. A. Den Hartog, J. E. Lawler, I. U. Roederer

We report new branching fraction measurements for 199 UV and optical transitions of Hf II. These transitions range in wavelength (wavenumber) from 2068- 6584 A (48322-15183 cm-1) a…

New Rare Earth Element Abundance Distributions for the Sun and Five r-Process-Rich Very Metal-Poor Stars

Christopher Sneden, James E. Lawler, John J. Cowan +2

We have derived new abundances of the rare-earth elements Pr, Dy, Tm, Yb, and Lu for the solar photosphere and for five very metal-poor, neutron-capture r-process-rich giant stars.…

Improved Laboratory Transition Probabilities for Er II and Applications to the Erbium Abundances of the Sun and Five r-Process Rich, Metal-Poor Stars

J. E. Lawler, C. Sneden, J. J. Cowan +5

Recent radiative lifetime measurements accurate to +/- 5% (Stockett et al. 2007, J. Phys. B 40, 4529) using laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) on 8 even-parity and 62 odd-parity leve…
