Influence of Collisions with Hydrogen Atoms on Non-LTE Effects for K I and Ca II in Stellar Atmospheres
We have constructed a new K I model atom using currently available atomic data. We have performed calculations for K I by abandoning the assumption of local thermodynamic equilibrium (non-LTE) for the Sun and ...

Non-LTE sodium abundance in galactic thick- and thin-disk red giants
The non-LTE sodium abundance has been determined from the Na I 6154 and 6161 Å lines for 38 thin-disk stars (15 of them are Ba II stars), 15 thick-disk stars, 13 Hercules-stream stars, and 13 stars that cannot...
