Abstract:The modeling of non-local-thermodynamic-equilibrium plasmas is crucial for many aspects of high-energy-density physics. It often requires collisional-radiative models coupled with radiativehydrodynamics simulations. Therefore, there is a strong need for fast and as accurate as possible calculations of the cross-sections and rates of the different collisional and radiative processes. We present an analytical approach for the computation of the electron-impact excitation (EIE) cross-sections in the Plane Wave Bo… Show more
