Theoretical Astrophysics Research

Elitzur将继续在三个领域进行理论研究， 原子或分子物理的细节。 它们的质量损失来自 晚型恒星，在新形成的恒星附近流动， 恒星和星系吸积盘。 埃利楚尔是一位将原子和分子理论联系起来的专家 具体的天文观测。 他将计算 选定的紫外线、可见光和无线电发射的强度 为了推断红巨星的风和质量损失， 新形成的恒星喷出的气体流， 围绕恒星或恒星中心的气体盘结构 星系

Elitzur will continue theoretical work on three areas, all related to detailed atomic or molecular physics. They are mass loss from late-type stars, flows near newly forming stars and spectra from stellar and galactic accretion disks. Elitzur is an expert in relating the theory of atoms and molecules to specific astronomical observations. He will compute the intensities of selected ultraviolet, visible, and radio emissions in order to deduce the winds and mass-loss from red giant stars, the flow of gases ejected from newly forming stars, and the structure of gaseous disks around either stars or centers of galaxies.
