Integral cross sections for optically allowed electronic-state excitations of atoms and
molecules by electron impact, by applying scaled plane-wave Born models, are reviewed …

The measurement of stellar properties such as chemical compositions, masses and ages,
through stellar spectra, is a fundamental problem in astrophysics. Progress in the …

Two methods to scale plane-wave Born cross sections for electron-impact excitations of
neutral atoms are shown to produce excitation cross sections comparable in accuracy to …

The lithium beam emission spectroscopy (Li-BES) is a powerful diagnostic to resolve the
plasma edge density with high temporal and spatial resolution. The recent upgrades of the …

A probabilistic data analysis method was applied to analyze the spatially resolved beam
emission intensities from the lithium beam diagnostic at ASDEX Upgrade. The method …

Context. Older models of Galactic chemical evolution (GCE) predict [K/Fe] ratios as much as
1 dex lower than those inferred from stellar observations. Abundances of potassium are …

The lithium beam diagnostic at ASDEX Upgrade routinely delivers electron density profiles
in the plasma edge by lithium beam impact excitation spectroscopy. An accurate …

Thin films of solid-state lithium-ion electrolytes show promise for use in small-sized
