Atomic Data for Non-Equilibrium Modeling of Kilonovae: The Ionization Properties of Te I - III
S. Bromley, E. Garbe, N. McElroy +4
Kilonovae, the electromagnetic transients produced from two merging neutron stars, exhibit evolving spectral signatures in ultraviolet, visible, and infrared radiation. Starting ar…

New Level Resolved Ground and Excited State Pb III, IV, V & VI Photoionization Cross Sections for Heavy Metal Subdwarf Modeling
David J. Dougan, Matti Dorsch, Laura J. A. Scott +3
High abundances of various lead (Pb) species have been identified in the spectra of many Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars and O- and B-type subdwarfs (sdO/B). Additional atomic…

Strontium I, III, IV and V: Electron Impact Excitation Data for Kilonovae and White Dwarf Diagnostic Applications
David J. Dougan, Niall E. McElroy, Connor P. Ballance +1
Strontium (Sr) emissions have been observed across a wide range of astrophysical phenomena, from kilonovae (KNe) events to white dwarf (WD) stars. Precise and extensive atomic data…
