Description
This book provides a compact yet comprehensive overview of recent
developments in collisional-radiative (CR) modeling of laboratory and
astrophysical plasmas. It describes advances across the entire
field, from basic considerations of model completeness to validation and
verification of CR models to calculation of plasma kinetic characteristics and
spectra in diverse plasmas.
Various approaches to CR modeling are presented, together with numerous
examples of applications. A number of important topics, such as atomic
models for CR modeling, atomic data and its availability and quality, radiation
transport, non-Maxwellian effects on plasma emission, ionization potential
lowering, and verification and validation of CR models, are thoroughly
addressed. Strong emphasis is placed on the most recent developments in the
field, such as XFEL spectroscopy.
Written by leading international research scientists from a number of
key laboratories, the book offers a timely summary of the most recent progress in this area. It will be a useful and practical guide for students and
experienced researchers working in plasma spectroscopy, spectra simulations,
and related fields.
