Laser Comb Wavelength calibration shows that the ThAr one is locally unreliable with possible deviations of up to 100 m/s within one order range, while delivering an overall 1 m/s accuracy (Wilken et...

We present a new method for recovering the kinetic temperature of the intervening di+use gas to an accuracy of 10%. The method is based on the comparison of unsaturated absorption-line proles of two...
Exploring variations in the fundamental constants with ELTs: The CODEX spectrograph on OWL (2006)
Molaro, Paolo, Murphy, Michael T., Levshakov, Sergei, Di Trieste, Osservatorio Astronomico, ...
Cosmological variations in the fine structure constant, alpha, can be probed through precise velocity measurements of metallic absorption lines from intervening gas clouds seen in spectra of distant...
