Comparison of Fe and Ni opacity calculations for a better understanding of pulsating stellar envelopes

D. Gilles, S. Turck-Chièze, G. Loisel +19

Opacity is an important ingredient of the evolution of stars. The calculation of opacity coefficients is complicated by the fact that the plasma contains partially ionized heavy io…

Iron and Nickel spectral opacity calculations in conditions relevant for pulsating stellar envelopes and experiments

D. Gilles, S. Turck-Chièze, M. Busquet +18

Seismology of stars is strongly developing. To address this question we have formed an international collaboration OPAC to perform specific experimental measurements, compare opaci…

Theoretical and experimental activities on opacities for a good interpretation of seismic stellar probes

S Turck-Chièze, G Loisel, D Gilles +23

Opacity calculations are basic ingredients of stellar modelling. They play a crucial role in the interpretation of acoustic modes detected by SoHO, COROT and KEPLER. In this review…

Radiative properties of stellar plasmas and open challenges

S. Turck-Chièze, G. Loisel, D. Gilles +24

The lifetime of solar-like stars, the envelope structure of more massive stars, and stellar acoustic frequencies largely depend on the radiative properties of the stellar plasma. U…

Measure of precursor electron density profiles of laser launched radiative shocks

Michel Busquet, Frédéric Thais, Matthias González +1

We have studied the dynamics of strong radiative shocks generated with the high-energy subnanosecond iodine laser at Prague Asterix Laser System facility

Measurement of XUV-absorption spectra of ZnS radiatively heated foils

Nikolaos Kontogiannopoulmos, Serena Bastiani-Ceccotti, Frédéric Thais +7

Time-resolved absorption of zinc sulfide (ZnS) and aluminum in the XUV-range has been measured. Thin foils in conditions close to local thermodynamic equilibrium were heated by rad…
