Ultraviolet emission lines of Si II in cool star and solar spectra

Sibasish Laha, Francis P. Keenan, Gary J. ferland +6

Recent atomic physics calculations for Si II are employed within the Cloudy modelling code to analyse Hubble Space Telescope (HST) STIS ultraviolet spectra of three cool stars, Bet…

The Nature and Frequency of Outflows from Stars in the Central Orion Nebula Cluster

C. R. O'Dell, G. J. Ferland, W. J. Henney +3

Recent Hubble Space Telescope images have allowed the determination with unprecedented accuracy of motions and changes of shocks within the inner Orion Nebula. These originate from…

Atomic data for Zn II - Improving Spectral Diagnostics of Chemical Evolution in High-redshift Galaxies

Romas Kisielius, Varsha P. Kulkarni, Gary J. Ferland +3

Damped Lyman-alpha (DLA) and sub-DLA absorbers in quasar spectra provide the most sensitive tools for measuring element abundances of distant galaxies. Estimation of abundances fro…

Herschel dust emission as a probe of starless cores mass: MCLD 123.5+24.9 of the Polaris Flare

Gururaj A. Wagle, Thomas H. Troland, Gary J. Ferland +1

We present newly processed archival Herschel images of molecular cloud MCLD 123.5+24.9 in the Polaris Flare. This cloud contains five starless cores. Using the spectral synthesis c…
