We have obtained high resolution spectra (R = 25000) of an A star over varying airmass to determine the effectiveness of telluric removal in the limit of high signal to noise. The near infra-red line HeI at 2.058 microns, which is a…
[Abridged] We present Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) observations of the young, compact planetary nebula (PN) SwSt 1 along the line of sight to its central star HD 167362. We detect circumstellar absorption lines from several…
We present the current status of our construction of synthetic spectra for type Ia supernovae. These properly take into account the effects of NLTE and an adequate representation of line blocking and blanketing. The models are based on a…
Light trapping in planar ultrathin-film solar cells is limited due to a small number of optical modes available in the thin-film slab. A nanostructured thin-film design could surpass this limit by providing broadband increase in the local…
We present nine near-infrared (NIR) spectra of supernova (SN) 2005cf at epochs from -10 d to +42 d with respect to B-band maximum, complementing the existing excellent data sets available for this prototypical Type Ia SN at other…
We present the first mid-infrared (5.2-15.2 micron) spectra of Type Ia supernovae (SNe 2003hv and 2005df). The detection of Ni emission in SN 2005df 135 days after the explosion provides direct observational evidence of high-density nuclear…
We present a near-infrared abundance analysis of 46 solar analogs with known ages, observed with the WINERED WIDE-mode spectrograph at a resolution of $\lambda/\Delta\lambda = 28,000$. Using an empirically calibrated, line-by-line approach…
The fine structure constant, $\alpha$, sets the strength of the electromagnetic force. The Standard Model of particle physics provides no explanation for its value, which could potentially vary. The wavelengths of stellar absorption lines…
We present ISO-SWS and ISOPHOT-S spectroscopy of the Seyfert galaxy NGC 4151. We detect a total of 17 fine structure emission lines emitted by a wide range of low- and high-excitation ions, two rotational lines of molecular hydrogen, and…
High-temperature Cu-Mn-Fe spinel-oxide nanoparticle solar selective absorber coatings are investigated experimentally and theoretically. A reliable, general approach to evaluate absorption coefficient spectra from the optical measurements…
The chromosphere is a complex solar atmosphere that hosts a variety of transients and transports significant free energy to heat the corona. However, due to the limited sensitivity of polarization measurement and the influence of spectral…
The fine-structure lines of singly ([Ne II] 12.8 micron) and doubly ([Ne III] 15.6 micron) ionized neon are among the most prominent features in the mid-infrared spectra of star-forming regions, and have the potential to be a powerful new…
We present the first detection of the near-infrared CN absorption band in the nuclear spectra of active galactic nuclei (AGN). This feature is a recent star formation tracer, being particularly strong in carbon stars. The equivalent width…
This review discussed near- and mid- infrared observations of ultracompact (UC) HII regions. The importance of ISO mid-IR fine-structure nebular lines is emphasised since only a small fraction of UCHII regions are observed directly in the…
I present an atlas of near-infrared K-band spectra of 31 late-type giants and supergiants, and two carbon stars. The spectra were obtained at resolving powers of 830 and 2000, and have a signal-to-noise ratio of 100 or higher. These data…
We present mid-infrared spectra of thirty two high redshift ultraluminous infrared galaxies, selected via the stellar photospheric feature at rest-frame 1.6um, and an observed-frame 24um flux of >500muJy. Nearly all the sample reside in a…
We present a method of extrapolating the spectroscopic behavior of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) in the near-infrared (NIR) wavelength regime up to 2.30 $\mu$m using optical spectroscopy. Such a process is useful for accurately estimating…
We present early-phase panchromatic photometric and spectroscopic coverage spanning far-ultraviolet (FUV) to the near-infrared (NIR) regime of the nearest hydrogen-rich core-collapse supernova in the last 25 years, SN 2023ixf. We observe…
This paper continues our study of the behaviour of near infrared helium recombination lines in planetary nebula. We find that the 1.7007um 4^3D-3^3P HeI line is a good measure of the HeI recombination rate, since it varies smoothly with the…
