Identification of new gold lines in the 350 to 1000 nm spectral region using laser produced plasmas
M. Charlwood, S. Chaurasia, M. McCann +3
We present results from a pilot study, using a laser-produced plasma, to identify new lines in the 350 to 1000 nm spectral region for the r-process element gold (Au), of relevance…

Generation of photoionized plasmas in the laboratory of relevance to accretion-powered x-ray sources using keV line radiation
D. Riley, R. L. Singh, S White +12
We describe laboratory experiments to generate X-ray photoionized plasmas of relevance to accretion-powered X-ray sources such as neutron star binaries and quasars, with significan…

L-shell X-ray conversion yields for laser-irradiated tin and silver foils
R. L. Singh, S. White, M. Charlwood +10
We have employed the VULCAN laser facility to generate a laser plasma X-ray source for use in photoionisation experiments. A nanosecond laser pulse with an intensity of order ${10}…
