Manganese's emission lines shine a light on galactic evolution
In a new study, a team of astronomers has identified wavelengths of light that could be useful for tracing the chemical evolution of the universe. Using computational modeling to simulate how electrons interact with manganese ions—an element produced during stellar explosions called supernovae—researchers predicted how different environmental conditions could produce observable light known as emission lines.
