The spectrum of neutral iron is critical to astrophysics, yet furnace laboratory experiments cannot reach many high-lying Fe I levels. Instead, Peterson & Kurucz (2015) and Peterson, Kurucz & Ayres (2017) turned to UV and optical spectra of…

Many energy levels of singly ionised iron (Fe II, $Z=26$) remain uncertain or experimentally unknown. Their identification and spectral line data are required in reliable astrophysical spectral analyses. In motivation for improving the…
Optical transitions of highly charged ions can be very sensitive to hypothetical beyond-the-Standard-Model phenomena. Those near the $5s-4f$ level crossing, where the $5s$ and $4f$ are degenerate are especially promising. We present…
The early spectra of the kilonova (KN) AT2017gfo following the binary neutron star merger GW170817 exhibit numerous features shaped by r-process nucleosynthesis products. Although a few species were tentatively detected, no third-peak…
We report new branching fractions for 121 UV lines from the low-lying odd-parity levels of Fe II belonging to the z6Do, z6Fo, z6Po, z4Fo, z4Do and z4Po terms of the 3d6(5D)4p configuration. These lines range in wavelength from 2250 - 3280…
