Laboratory Astrophysics Needs for X-ray Grating Spectrometers
·
Abstract
New X-ray gratings provide far higher sensitivity and resolution, but to use the capabilities, improvements are needed in measurements of wavelengths, radiative and collisional transition rates, as well as ionization and recombination cross sections. Significant progress also needs to be made in understanding the theoretical atomic physics.
