Opacity predictions in plasmas under stellar conditions using deep learning

Djamel Benredjem, Jean-Christophe Pain

The aim of this work is to predict the opacity of plasmas under stellar conditions. We focus on iron and nickel, as these elements have been extensively investigated both theoretic…

Benford's law in atomic spectra and opacity databases

Jean-Christophe Pain, Yuri Ralchenko

The intriguing law of anomalous numbers, also named Benford's law, states that the significant digits of data follow a logarithmic distribution favoring the smallest values. In thi…

Checking the reliability of opacity databases

Jean-Christophe Pain, Patricia Croset

Mathematical inequalities, combined with atomic-physics sum rules, enable one to derive lower and upper bounds for the Rosseland and/or Planck mean opacities. The resulting constra…

Schroedinger equation on a generic radial grid

Christopher Bowen, Jean-Christophe Pain

In this note, we discuss the choice of radial grid in the numerical resolution of the Schroedinger equation. We detail the transformation of the equation resulting from a change of…

A fast approximation to supershell partition functions

Bran G. Wilson, Jean-Christophe Pain

A formula for supershell partition functions, which play a major role in the Super Transition Array approach to radiative-opacity calculations, is derived as a functional of the di…

Distribution of the total angular momentum in relativistic configurations

Michel Poirier, Jean-Christophe Pain

This paper is devoted to the analysis of the distribution of the total angular momentum in a relativistic configuration. Using cumulants and generating function formalism this anal…
