Helioseismic inference of the solar radiative opacity [PDF]
The Sun is the most studied of all stars, and thus constitutes a benchmark for stellar models. However, our vision of the Sun is still incomplete, as illustrated by the current debate on its chemical composition.

Increasing wintertime cloud opacity increases surface longwave radiation at a long-term Arctic observatory [PDF]
As the Arctic warms, winter clouds are known and expected to change. Yet the extent to which these cloud changes amplify or dampen warming (cloud feedback) remains uncertain.

Fast Calculation of the Radiative Opacity of Plasma [PDF]
Plasma opacity calculations play an important role in solar modelling and many plasma physics and inertial confinement fusion experiments. This thesis is focussed on the fast calculation of opacity from first principles.

OPserver: interactive online-computations of opacities and radiative accelerations [PDF]
Codes to compute mean opacities and radiative accelerations for arbitrary chemical mixtures using the Opacity Project recently revised data have been restructured in a client--server architecture and transcribed as a subroutine library.

Olivine’s high radiative conductivity increases slab temperature by up to 200K [PDF]
The thermal evolution of slabs governs their subduction dynamics and the transport of water into Earth’s interior. However, current slab subduction models often neglect the contribution of radiative thermal conductivity (i.e., heat transport by light ...

Updated Opacity Project radiative accelerations [PDF]
Updated data for the calculation of radiative accelerations, grad, referred to as OP 2005, have been made generally available on the Web. They differ from the earlier 1997 OP data mainly in the inclusion of contributions from inner-shell processes. The frequency resolution used for OP 2005 is shown to be satisfactory except for extreme cases of low ...

Radiative atomic Rosseland mean opacity tables
For more than two decades the astrophysics community has depended on opacity tables produced at Los Alamos. In the present work we offer new radiative Rosseland mean opacity tables calculated with the OPAL code developed independently at LLNL. We give extensive results for the recent Anders-Grevesse mixture which allow accurate interpolation in ...

Radiative cooling textiles using industry-standard particle-free nonporous micro-structured fibers [PDF]
Thermal radiation is a major dissipative pathway for heat generated by the human body and offers a significant thermoregulation mechanism over a wide range of conditions.

Medium-induced radiative kernel with the Improved Opacity Expansion
We calculate the fully differential medium-induced radiative spectrum at next-to-leading order (NLO) accuracy within the Improved Opacity Expansion (IOE) framework.
