    • High energy density plasma simulations using ultracold neutral plasmas 

      Bergeson, Scott (2018-04-27)
      Strongly-coupled Coulomb systems are typically fluid-like plasmas characterized by the ratio of the nearest-neighbor electrical potential energy to the average kinetic energy. When this ratio is near unity, the plasmas are ...

    • How I Became a Non-Chemist 

      Menningen, Ken (2018-04-27)
      Some scientists direct their careers with laser focus to answer a small set of questions. Others wander around like a trapped photon. I will tell the story about how a plasma physicist ended up studying combustion chemistry, ...

    • Jim Lawler's Science: Above and Below the H-Line 

      Walker, Thad G. (2018-04-27)
      This presentation gives an overview of Jim Lawler's career, focusing on a few of his important contributions to science.

    • JimFest Overview 

      Walker, Thad; Bergeson, Scott (2018-04-27)
      Overview of the 2018 Wisconsin Atomic Spectroscopy Seminar in honor of Prof. James E. Lawler. Includes biographical information and the scientific program.

    • Measurements of branching fractions using Fourier transform and grating spectroscopy 

      Nave, Gillian (2018-04-30)
      The measurement of lifetimes using laser-induced fluorescence at the University of Wisconsin-Madison has been one of the most productive experiments in the measurement of atomic spectroscopic data. The NIST bibliographic ...

    • Six Lines to Tell a Story 

      Wood, Michael (2018-04-27)
      In this talk, I will highlight a recently completed investigation into a challenge brought against our earlier work on vanadium. The discrepancy between six transition probabilities and its resolution touches on several ...

    • Spectroscopic study of the 7p J=1/2 and 7p J=3/2 states in neutral cesium-133 

      Herd, Maria-Teresa (2018-04-27)
      I will start with a few observations of connections between spectroscopy and other (seemingly unrelated) research topics, then focus on Doppler free spectroscopy on the 7p J=1/2 and 7p J=3/2 states in neutral cesium-133. ...

    • Transition Probabilities for Neutral Cerium from Boltzmann Analysis of Fourier Transform Spectra 

      Nitz, David (2018-04-27)
      Poster presentation on Cerium transition probabilities

    • UW Laboratory Astrophysics 

      DenHartog, Elizabeth (2018-04-27)
      In this talk I will describe the laboratory astrophysics program of the Jim Lawler group at the University of Wisconsin – Madison, focusing on the laboratory techniques and instruments used for the measurement of transition ...
