Here, we compare radiative accelerations (g_rad) derived from the new Opacity Project (OP) data with those computed from OPAL and some previous data from OP. For the case where we have full data from OPAL, the differences in the Rosseland mean opacities between OPAL and the new OP data are within 12% and less than 30% between new OP and previous OP data (OP1 at CDS). The radiative accelerations g_rad differ at up to the 17% level when compared to OPAL and up to the 38% level when compared to OP1. The comparison with OP1 on a larger (rho-T) space gives a difference of up to 40% for g_rad(C). And it increases for heavier elements. The differences increase for heavier elements reaching 60% for Si and 65% for S and Fe. We also constructed four representative stellar models in order to compare the new OP accelerations with prior published results that used OPAL data. The Rosseland means overall agree better than 10% for all of our cases. For the accelerations, the comparisons with published values yield larger differences in general. The published OPAL accelerations for carbon are even larger relative to OP compare to what our direct comparisons would indicate. Potential reasons for this puzzling behavior are discussed. In light of the significant differences in the inferred acceleration rates, theoretical errors should be taken into account when comparing models with observations. The implications for stellar evolution are briefly discussed. The sensitivity of g_rad to the atomic physics may provide a useful test of different opacity sources.

A brief review of various methods to calculate radiative accelerations for stellar evolution and an analysis of their limitations are followed by applications to Pop I and Pop II stars. Recent applications to Horizontal Branch (HB) star evolution are
also described. It is shown that models including atomic diffusion satisfy Schwarzschilds criterion on the interior side of the core boundary on the HB without the introduction of overshooting. Using stellar evolution models starting on the Main Sequence and calculated throughout evolution with atomic diffusion, radiative accelerations are shown to lead to abundance anomalies similar to those observed on the HB of M15.
When modelling stars with masses larger than 1.2Msun with no observed chemical peculiarity, atomic diffusion is often neglected because, on its own, it causes unrealistic surface abundances compared with those observed. The reality is that atomic dif
fusion is in competition with other transport processes. The purpose of this study is to quantify the opposite or conjugated effects of atomic diffusion and rotationally induced mixing in stellar models of low mass stars. Our second goal is to estimate the impact of neglecting both rotational mixing and atomic diffusion in stellar parameter inferences for stars with masses larger than 1.3Msun. Using the AIMS code, we infer the masses and ages of a set of representative artificial stars for which models were computed with the CESTAM evolution code, taking into account rotationally induced mixing and atomic diffusion, including radiative accelerations. We show that for masses lower than 1.3Msun, rotation dominates the transport of chemical elements, and strongly reduces the effect of atomic diffusion, with net surface abundance modifications similar to solar ones. At larger mass, atomic diffusion and rotation are competing equally. Above 1.44Msun, atomic diffusion dominates in stellar models with initial rotation smaller than 80km.s-1 producing a chemical peculiarity which is not observed in Kepler-legacy stars. This indicates that a transport process of chemical elements is missing. Importantly, neglecting rotation and atomic diffusion (including radiative accelerations) in the models, when inferring the parameters of F-type stars, may lead to errors of 5%, 2.5% and 25% respectively for stellar masses, radii and ages. Atomic diffusion (including radiative accelerations) and rotational mixing should be taken into account in stellar models in order to determine accurate stellar parameters.
Concussion and repeated exposure to mild traumatic brain injury are risks for athletes in many sports. While direct head impacts are analyzed to improve the detection and awareness of head acceleration events so that an athletes brain health can be a
ppropriately monitored and treated. However, head accelerations can also be induced by impacts with little or no head involvement. In this work we evaluated if impacts that do not involve direct head contact, such as being pushed in the torso, can be sufficient in collegiate American football to induce head accelerations comparable to direct head impacts. Datasets of impacts with and without direct head contact were collected and compared. These datasets were gathered using a state-of-the-art impact detection algorithm embedded in an instrumented mouthguard to record head kinematics. Video analysis was used to differentiate between impact types. In total, 15 impacts of each type were used in comparison, with clear video screenshots available to distinguish each impact type. Analysis of the kinematics showed that the impacts without direct head contact achieved similar levels of linear and angular accelerations during impact compared to those from direct head impacts. Finite element analyses using the median and peak kinematic signals were used to calculate maximum principal strain of the brain. Statistical analysis revealed that no significant difference was found between the two datasets based on a Bonferroni-adjusted p-value threshold of 0.017 , with the exception of peak linear acceleration. Impacts without direct head contact showed higher mean values of peak linear acceleration values of 17.6 g compared to the direct-head impact mean value of 6.1g. These results indicated that impacts other than direct head impacts could still produce meaningful kinematic loads in the head and as such should be included in athlete health monitoring.
In the Open Data Portal Germany (OPAL) project, a pipeline of the following data refinement steps has been developed: requirements analysis, data acquisition, analysis, conversion, integration and selection. 800,000 datasets in DCAT format have been produced.
Today, relativistic calculations are known to provide a very successful means in the study of open-shell atoms and ions. But although accurate atomic data are obtained from these computations, they are traditionally carried out in jj-coupling and, he
nce, do often not allow for a simple LSJ classification of the atomic levels as needed by experiment. In fact, this lack of providing a proper spectroscopic notation from relativistic structure calculations has recently hampered not only the spectroscopy of medium and heavy elements, but also the interpretation and analysis of inner-shell processes, for which the occurrence of additional vacancies usually leads to a very detailed fine structure. Therefore, in order to facilitate the classification of atomic levels from such computations, here we present a program (within the Ratip environment) which help transform the atomic wave functions from jj-coupled multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock computations into a LS-coupled representation. Beside of a proper LSJ assignment to the atomic levels, the program also supports the full transformation of the wave functions if required for (nonrelativistic) computations.
