The half-life of the $^{20}$F ground state has been measured using a radioactive beam implanted in a plastic scintillator and recording $\beta\gamma$ coincidences together with four CsI(Na) detectors. The result, $T_{1/2} = 11.0011(69)_{\rm…
The time evolution of the fluorescence intensity emitted by well-defined ensembles of Green Fluorescent Proteins has been studied by using a standard confocal microscope. In contrast with previous results obtained in single molecule…
The abundance of iron is measured from emission line complexes at 6.65 keV (Fe line) and 8 keV (Fe/Ni line) in {\em RHESSI} X-ray spectra during solar flares. Spectra during long-duration flares with steady declines were selected, with an…
Laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) is a powerful tool in studying wave-particle interactions, velocity-space diffusion and other phenomena in plasmas under the proper conditions. Ignoring the possible instrumental errors in LIF, such as…
Recent fully relativistic calculations of radiative rates and electron impact excitation cross sections for Fe {\sc xiii} are used to generate emission-line ratios involving 3s$^{2}$3p$^{2}$--3s3p$^{3}$ and 3s$^{2}$3p$^{2}$--3s$^{2}$3p3d…
The absolute frequencies of the hyperfine components of the R(26) 62-0 transition in molecular iodine at 501.7 nm are measured for the first time with an optical clockwork based on a femtosecond laser frequency comb generator. The set-up is…
The spectrum of the Io plasma torus in the range 905 - 1187 A was recorded at 0.26 A resolution by the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) on 2001 January 14. Five orbits of data were obtained with the west ansa of the torus…
The spectrum of the Fe I atom is critical to many areas of astrophysics and beyond. Measurements of the energies of its high-lying levels remain woefully incomplete, however, despite extensive analysis of ultraviolet laboratory iron…
We report lifetimes, branching fractions, and the resulting oscillator strengths for transitions within the P II multiplet (3s^23p^2 ^3P - 3s^23p4s ^3P^o) at 1154 A. These beam-foil measurements represent the most comprehensive and precise…
We present angle resolved photoemission spectra for Ag(111) and Au(111) single crystals in normal emission geometry, taken at closely spaced intervals for photon energies between 8 eV and 160 eV. The most dominant transitions observed are…
A new technique was developed to measure the lifetimes of neutron unbound nuclei in the picosecond range. The decay of 26O -> 24O+n+n was examined as it had been predicted to have an appreciable lifetime due to the unique structure of the…
The evolution of nuclear magic numbers at extremes of isospin is a topic at the forefront of contemporary nuclear physics. $N=50$ is a prime example, with increasing experimental data coming to light on potentially doubly-magic $^{100}$Sn…
Fe II emission is a well-known contributor to the UV spectra of active galactic nuclei and the modeling of this part may affect the results obtained for the MgII$\lambda2800$ emission, which is one of the lines used for black hole mass…
For more than twenty years, strong Fe II emission lines have been observed in Active Galactic Nuclei and in particular in Narrow Line Seyfert 1 galaxies. A quick overview of the observations and of the models proposed to interpret the Fe II…
