... Cygnus X-1 is a luminous X-ray binary, hosting a 14.81 ± 0.98 M⊙ black hole (BH) and a 19.16 ± 1.90 M⊙ O supergiant star in a Keplerian orbit of 5.6 days (Orosz 2011). This system is a persistent X-ray source that emits in two states: low-hard or high-soft state. Although the supergiant is close to ...

For comparison of computed DFT spectra with observed IRMPD spectra, the computed frequencies in the 1000−1900 cm−1 range were scaled by a factor of 0.975 (or 0.98 for the larger basis set), which our experience suggests to be appropriate at these levels of theory. In the 3000−3800 cm−1 range, vibrat ...

Astronomical spectroscopy
Astronomical spectroscopy is the study of astronomy using the techniques of spectroscopy to measure the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation, including visible light, which radiates from stars and other hot celestial objects. Spectroscopy can be used to derive many properties of distant stars and galaxies, such as their chemical composition, temperature, density, mass, distance, luminosity, and relative motion using Doppler shift measurements.
