Atomic Data for X-ray Astrophysics
We review the available atomic data used for interpreting and modeling X-ray observations. The applications for these data can be divided into several levels of detail, ranging from compilations which can be used with direct inspection of raw data, such as line finding lists, to synthetic spectra which attempt to fit to an entire observed dataset simultaneously. This review covers cosmic source...
متن کاملX-Ray Spectroscopy and Atomic Data
The Laboratory Astrophysics program employing the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) Electron Beam Ion Trap (EBIT) has been providing useful atomic data in support of the x-ray missions Chandra and XMM-Newton. Major achievements have been made for Fe-L ions in hot, collisional plasmas, relevant to stellar coronae, supernova remnants, elliptical galaxies, and galaxy clusters. Measurem...
متن کاملPhase Fresnel Lens Development for X-ray & Gamma-ray Astronomy
Observations in the hard X-ray and gammaray energy regimes are constrained by limited sensitivity and angular resolution. Significant gains could be made if these high-energy photons could be concentrated from a large area onto a small detector element and if diffraction-limited measurements could be obtained. Furthermore, the angular resolution in the gamma-ray band would be superior to that p...
متن کاملFresnel lenses for X-ray and Gamma-ray Astronomy
Phase Fresnel lenses have the same imaging properties as zone plates, but with the possibility of concentrating all of the incident power into the primary focus, increasing the maximum theoretical efficiency from 11% to close to 100%. For X-rays, and in particular for gamma-rays, large, diffraction-limited phase Fresnel lenses can be made relatively easily. The focal length is very long for exa...
متن کاملAtomic data for astrophysics: Fe soft X-ray lines
New atomic calculations for Fe are presented. They focus on the need to model the soft X-ray spectrum and in particular the line at 94.0 Å which is the dominant contribution to the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) 94 Å band in quiet Sun conditions. This line, and others in the band, are due to strong decays from n = 4 levels. We present new large-scale R-mat...
