Temperature inhomogeneities cause the abundance discrepancy in H II regions
URL https://arxiv.org/pdf/2305.11578.pdf Stage Model Revolution Paradigm framing The established paradigm in astrophysics for determining the chemical composition of ionized nebulae (H II regions) has long relied on spectral line analysis. However, this paradigm has been in a state of crisis for over 80 years due to the "abundance discrepancy": a persistent, systematic difference between abundances […]
