Calculation of the dependence of transition frequencies on the fine structure constant and the search for variation of alpha in QSO spectra

2026-07-072026-07-07http://salesiana.dossiersoluciones.com/handle/123456789/8104We calculate the dependence of atomic transition frequencies on the fine structure constant, $α= e^2/\hbar c$, for some ions of Ti, Mn, Na, C, and O. The results of these calculations will be used in the search for variation of alpha in quasar absorption spectra.4 pages, 1 figureAstrophysicsCalculation of the dependence of transition frequencies on the fine structure constant and the search for variation of alpha in QSO spectratext
