Stark Broadening of several Ar I Spectral Lines in the Visible Part of the Spectrum
In order to complete data on Stark broadening parameters for Ar I line in the
visible spectrum, we determined Stark widths and shifts due to electron,
proton, and ionized helium impacts, for nine lines (4191.0, 4259.4, 5912.1,
6043.2, 6045.0, 6752.9, 7503.9, 7514.6, 7724.2 {\AA}), using jK coupling and
semiclassical-perturbation theory. The obtained results will enter the STARK-B
database, which is a part of Virtual Atomic and Molecular Data Center
Constrained Dynamics of Tachyon Field in FRWL Spacetime
In this paper we continue study of tachyon scalar field described by a
Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) type action with constraints in the cosmological
context. The proposed extension of the system introducing an auxiliary field in
the minisuperspace framework is discussed. A new equivalent set of constraints
is constructed, satisfying the usual regularity conditions.Comment: 10 pages, to be published in the Special Issue of the Facta

Noncommutative gravity at second order via Seiberg-Witten map
We develop a general strategy to express noncommutative actions in terms of
commutative ones by using a recently developed geometric generalization of the
Seiberg-Witten map (SW map) between noncommutative and commutative fields.
We apply this general scheme to the noncommutative vierbein gravity action
and provide a SW differential equation for the action itself as well as a
recursive solution at all orders in the noncommutativity parameter \theta. We
thus express the action at order \theta^n+2 in terms of noncommutative fields
of order at most \theta^n+1 and, iterating the procedure, in terms of
noncommutative fields of order at most \theta^n.
This in particular provides the explicit expression of the action at order
\theta^2 in terms of the usual commutative spin connection and vierbein fields.
The result is an extended gravity action on commutative spacetime that is
manifestly invariant under local Lorentz rotations and general coordinate
transformations.Comment: 14 page
A symmetry invariant integral on kappa-deformed spacetime
In this note we present an approach using both constructive and Hopf
algebraic methods to contribute to the not yet fully satisfactory definition of
an integral on kappa-deformed spacetime. The integral presented here is based
on the inner product of differential forms and it is shown that this integral
is explicitly invariant under the deformed symmetry structure.Comment: 16 page
Stark broadening data for spectral lines of rare-earth elements: Nb III
The electron-impact widths for 15 doubly charged Nb ion lines have been
theoretically determined by using the modified semiempirical method. Using the
obtained results, we considered the influence of the electron-impact mechanism
on line shapes in spectra of chemically peculiar stars and white dwarfs.Comment: 10 pages, 2 figures, 1 table, accepted in Advances in Space Researc
