X-ray spectra of the Fe-L complex III: systematic uncertainties in the atomic data

Liyi Gu, Chintan Shah, Junjie Mao +14

There has been a growing request from the X-ray astronomy community for a quantitative estimate of systematic uncertainties originating from the atomic data used in plasma codes. T…

X-ray spectra of the Fe-L complex II: atomic data constraints from EBIT experiment and X-ray grating observations of Capella

Liyi Gu, Chintan Shah, Junjie Mao +14

The Hitomi results for the Perseus cluster have shown that accurate atomic models are essential to the success of X-ray spectroscopic missions, and just as important as knowledge o…

Revisiting the Fe XVII line emission problem: laboratory measurements of the 3s-2p and 3d-2p line-formation channels

Chintan Shah, José R. Crespo López-Urrutia, Ming Feng Gu +5

We determined relative X-ray photon emission cross sections in Fe XVII ions that were mono-energetically excited in an electron beam ion trap. Line formation for the 3s (3s-2p) and…

Polarization of K-shell dielectronic recombination satellite lines of Fe XIX-XXV and its application for diagnostics of anisotropies of hot plasmas

Chintan Shah, Pedro Amaro, René Steinbrügge +3

We present a systematic measurement of the X-ray emission asymmetries in the K-shell dielectronic, trielectronic, and quadruelectronic recombination of free electrons into highly c…
