Super Transition Arrays: A Tool for Studying Spectral Properties of Hot Plasmas
Plasma, 2021 For the theoretical study of X and extreme-UV spectra of ions in plasmas, quantum mechanics brings more detailed results than statistical physics. However, it is impossible to handle individually the billions of levels that must be taken into account in ...

Adaptive Algorithm for the Generation of Superconfigurations in Hot-Plasma Opacity Calculations
Plasma, 2022 In hot plasmas, such as the ones encountered in astrophysics or laser-fusion studies, the number of ionic excited states may become huge, and the relevant electron configurations cannot always be handled individually.
