Optical Properties of Plasmas Based on an Average-Atom Model
Optical properties of plasmas, including dielectric constants, indices of refraction, and absorption coefficients, are determined from an average-atom point of view. Linear response of an average atom to an harmonic electric field leads to an averageatom version of the Kubo-Greenwood formula, which is used to calculate the frequencydependent electric conductivity of the plasma. The frequency-de...
متن کاملA collisional-radiative model for simulation of Ne-like and F-like resonance lines emitted from laser produced plasmas
We describe a collisional radiative code to simulate the Ne-like and F-like resonance lines emitted from laser produced plasmas. Ions and excited levels densities are calculated by solving rate equations using an implicit-finite difference method for steady state, quasi steady state and time-dependent conditions. The code calculates intensities of Ne-like 1s22s22p6 → 1s22s22p5nl and F-like 1s22...
متن کاملProposal for high-power radiative-collisional lasers.
We propose the use of the radiative-collisional laser process for the extraction of energy that is stored in the resonance lines of the alkali atoms. The largest calculated gain occurs in Rb at 5.4 microm and is 8%/cm at a resonance-line population of 5 x 10(16) atoms/cm(3).
متن کاملPressure in the Average-Atom Model
The (well-known) quantum mechanical expression for the stress tensor is derived and applied to obtain a formula for the pressure in the average-atom model. This average-atom pressure formula reduces to the (well-known) expression for the pressure in a classical free-electron gas when the average-atom continuum wave functions are replaced by free-electron wave functions. 1 Derivation We start wi...
متن کاملOn stability of collisional coupling between relativistic electrons and ions in hot plasmas
The collisional coupling of relativistic electrons and non-relativistic ions in hot plasmas has been analysed. It is found that relativistic effects produce a new feature: while the condition Te < 3Ti guarantees a stable collisional coupling between electrons and ions in low-temperature plasmas, relativistic effects shift the upper Te/Ti boundary of stability to higher values. Moreover, for suf...
