He was director of the Mount Wilson and Palomar observatories 1946–64, and was responsible for finishing off the 508-cm/200-in reflector and for designing various of its optical accessories.
After his retirement in 1964 Bowen continued to work on optical design problems and was consulted on most of the large-telescope projects begun in the 1960s.

 Identification of Spectral Lines - History of Nebulium
Ira Bowen was a physicist at Caltech who worked with R.Millikan specialized in ultraviolet spectra and the energy levels of the light ions.
Bowen (1928) first showed that the 'Nebulium' lines which had been observed in the spectra of many cosmic nebulae but were long a complete mystery, were to be explained as forbidden transitions between the deep terms of O+ (4S, 2D, 2P), O++ (3P, 1D, 1S), and N+ (3P, 1D, 1S).
Bowen showed that the wavelengths of the forbidden lines, calculated from the combination of these terms, agree exactly (within the limits of experimental accuracy) with the wavelengths of the unexplained Nebulium lines.

 Amazon.co.uk: Books: The Last September   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Elizabeth Bowen's novel, The Last September, is a wonderful evocation of a vanished world that today seems as remote as that of pre-Revolutionary Russia.
In the middle of a nasty and bitter war between the British army and the IRA, and with the ever-present threat of ethnic cleansing by the IRA hanging over them, their reaction (and an all too human one) is to pretend that nothing is happening.
Bowen's characters are preoccupied, obsessed with the trivia of Irish society in the 1920 - tennis clubs, dances, house visiting, parties and afternoon tea.

 Guardian Unlimited | The Guardian | Iris Murdoch: A Life by Peter J Conradi
Bowen's Protestant Irishness, says Foster, made a "naturally separated person" of her; so did Murdoch's.
Doubtless Murdoch is mythologising her own family and, following Yeats and Bowen, adopting the historian WEH Lecky's idealisation of "those [Anglo-Irish] aristocrats who think themselves superior both to the English and to the Irish".
It had, she felt, romanticised violence, idealising the Catholic nationalist cause, investing in that self-perpetuating mythology of blood sacrifice on which the IRA fed. The Troubles were the one topic that could move her to tears of anger and distress.

Still, the last gasp of the Protestant feudal gentry is the main subject of Elizabeth Bowen's meticulous 1929 novel The Last September and, to a lesser extent, of the film Deborah Warner has now made of it.
Bowen, who's fallen into literary disfavor (she died in 1973), may be in for a popular revival à la Jane Austen, if the movies have anything to say about it.
It may be hard to sympathize with the ruling class as it comes to ruin, but the tide of history that sweeps over this crowd is full of emotion.

 Plant Physiology Online: Heat Dissipation from Leaves: The Bowen Ratio
Thus, the Bowen ratio is about 10 for deserts, 2-6 for semi-arid regions, 0.4 to 0.8 for temperate forests and grasslands, 0.2 for tropical rain forests and 0.1 for tropical oceans (Nobel 1999)
Plants with very high Bowen ratios conserve water but have to endure very high leaf temperatures in order to maintain a sufficient temperature gradient between the leaf and the air.
In these conditions there is no sensible heat loss, because the air around the leaf is at the same temperature as the leaf; the Bowen ratio therefore approaches zero, and heat dissipation is due mostly to evaporative heat loss.

Then Fuchs did what he calls "Ira's Kreskin Trick," asking a club member pick a passage in one journal -- of thousands of journals that are now online -- and the search engine was supposed to bring up the exact page.
This "journal trick" represents Fuchs' latest exciting project; he was drawn into it by the persuasive Bowen, now president of the Andrew W. Mellon foundation (http://www.mellon.org), with offices in Manhattan and on Alexander Street.
Bowen asked him to head the project to digitize scholarly journals so that libraries would not need quite so much storage space.

Stuart Bowen, special inspector general for Iraq reconstruction, said taking such action is an effective tool, particularly when auditors are struggling to come up with enough detailed evidence for criminal prosecutions.
Bowen's comments came in testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, as lawmakers complained that assessing fines is not enough to stop the billions of dollars in waste, fraud and abuse plaguing Iraq reconstruction projects.
Bowen said that such administrative action against those who commit misconduct can strip them of security clearances.

 forbidden line
The strongest are two lines of doubly ionized oxygen [O III], in the green part of the spectrum (to which the human eye is most sensitive) at 4959 and 5007 Å.
When these lines were first seen, in the spectra of planetary nebula in the 1860s, their true nature wasn't recognized and it was thought they might be due to a new element, which was dubbed "nebulium." More than half a century passed before Ira Bowen provided the right explanation.
Besides forbidden lines of ionized oxygen, others of neon, nitrogen, and other relatively abundant elements are seen making up the light of nebulae, as well as the ordinary, permitted lines of hydrogen and helium.
