We report on experimental branching fractions (BFs) for 19 transitions from the three 3d 5( 6S)4s4p( 3P) y6P levels in Fe II, measured in Fourier transform spectra of a Penning discharge lamp and a hollow cathode lamp. The transition wavelengths span the interval between 1600 and 2850 Å. Absolute oscillator strengths ( f-values) have been derived by combining the BFs with experimental radiative li

Rather different problems can be lumped together under the general term 'laser control of atoms and molecules'. They include the laser selection of atomic and molecular velocities for the purpose of Doppler-free spectroscopy, laser control of the position and velocity of atoms (i.e. laser trapping and cooling of atoms), and laser control of atomic and molecular processes (ionization, dissociation)

The conceptual design of the Large Earth-based Solar Telescope (LEST)has evolved through the years. In 1995-97 it was discussed whether atechnology demonstration telescope could be built at a lower cost thanthe LEST originally proposed. In 1997, a de-scoped LEST design, theso-called "Mini-LEST", was conceived and proposed to the LEST community.The telescope has an innovative design with a small fi

Titanium spectra recorded in the infrared wavelength region with a Fourier Transform Spectrometer have been analysed, and 572 lines have been identified as transitions of the types 3d-4f, 4d-4f and 4-5g. 11 lines in the UV region around 2400 angstrom have been identified as belonging to the 3d(3)4s a(5)F-3d(2)4s(F-4)4f transition array. 113 levels of the 3d(2)4s(F-4)4f, 3d(3)(F-4)4f and 3d(2)4s(F-

Tantalum spectra, emitted from a hollow cathode, have been recorded with a Fourier transform spectrometer in the region 2000–5000 Ů The observed hyperfine patterns of Ta II have been analyzed, yielding center-of-gravity wavelengths for 199 lines and hyperfine constants for 38 even and 97 odd levels of Ta II. Improved energy level values have been derived. The laboratory data have been used for a s

In spectra obtained from foil-excited and laser-produced plasmas, we have identified 70 new lines as belonging to the spectra of fluorine-like scandium and vanadium ions, Sc XIII and V XV The new lines in the wavelength region from 70 to 600 Angstrom represent 2p(4)3s-3p, 3p-3d and 3d-4f transition arrays. The spectra have been interpreted with the aid of theoretical calculations, and the consiste

A small fraction of the halo field is made up of stars that share the light element (Z <= 13) anomalies characteristic of second generation globular cluster (GC) stars. The ejected stars shed light on the formation of the Galactic halo by tracing the dynamical history of the clusters, which are believed to have once been more massive. Some of these ejected stars are expected to show strong Al enha
