(1) Background: Ionizing radiation in the Earth’s atmosphere drives key chemical transformations affecting atmospheric composition. Despite their environmental relevance, experimental data on proton collisions with hydrofluorocarbons remain lim...

We present an explicit numerical method to solve Milne’s phase–amplitude equations. Existing methods directly solve Milne’s nonlinear equation for amplitude. For that reason, they exhibit high sensitivity to errors and are prone to...

Lithium (Li)-rich continental brines found in the Lithium Triangle region in South America are a natural resource of paramount importance. In the present research, the analytical performance of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) technology w...

Nigel Robert Badnell was born on the 27th of October 1958 and grew up in Swindon where he lived with his parents, Dave and Patricia, and his wee sister, Hilary [...]

We present high-precision multi-configuration Dirac–Hartree–Fock (MCDHF) calculations for the metastable states of Pr9+ and Nd10+ ions, systematically investigating their energy levels, transition properties, Landé gJ factors, and...

The effects of cation substitution are the main emphasis of this investigation into the structural, mechanical, electronic, and optical properties of double perovskites K2AgSbBr6 and K2NaScBr6. Outwardly favorable tolerance and octahedral factors and...

The isotopic shift of the bound-electron g factor in highly charged ions (HCI) provides a sensitive probe for testing physics beyond the Standard Model, particularly through interactions mediated by a hypothetical scalar boson. In this study, we anal...

In the present work, the influence of external X-ray radiation on the kinetics of multicharged ions in high-temperature plasma is investigated. A generalized diagnostic approach is proposed for the electron density and temperature measurements of pho...

The journal’s Editorial Office and Editorial Board are jointly issuing a resolution and removal of the Journal Notice linked to this article [...]

We present excitation energies, transition wavelengths, electric dipole (E1) transition rates, oscillator strengths, line strengths, and lifetimes for the 86 lowest states up to and including 1s22s27f in N iii, the 125 lowest states up to and includi...
