Observations
Observations obtained with FUSE• 905 – 1187 Å (R ≈ 10000 – 20000 ≈ 0.1Å)• Rowland spectrograph: 4 gratings and 2 detectors, 2 coatings (Lithium-Fluoride, Silicon-Carbide)
Data reduction:• standard Calfuse Pipeline, done by J.W. Kruk• shifted to rest wavelength of photospheric lines
• corrections for interstellar reddening EB-V and NH

Static Models
Modelling of the stellar atmosphere
• NLTE model atmospheres, using TMAP
• basic assumptions: plane-parallel geometry, homogeneous structure hydrostatic equilibrium (matter is at rest) radiative equilibrium (no convection) statistical equilibrium / rate equations (NLTE) particle and charge conservation

Static Models
Beyond light metals: including iron and nickel
• too many levels and lines for numerical treatment
• concept: combine energy levels to few „superlevels“
• lines are combined to transitions between bands
• POS lines: observed; precisely known wavelengths LIN lines: observed + theoretically predicted
IrOnIc (Iron Opacity Interface)

Static Models
Iron group elements in PG1159 stars
• strong depletion of iron found, e.g. in the prototype PG 1159-035 (Jahn et al. 2007)
• iron depletion might be due to transformation into heavier elements by s-process neutron capture
• upper limit for nickel abundance still uncertain
POS lines for the final synthetic spectrum
upper limits for Fe and Ni abundance determined
