A variational atomic model of plasma accounting for ion radial correlations and electronic structure of ions (VAMPIRES)

T. Blenski, R. Piron

We propose a model of ion-electron plasma (or nucleus-electron plasma) that accounts for the electronic structure around nuclei (i.e. ion structure) as well as for ion-ion correlat…

Variational average-atom model of electron-ion plasma with correlations and quantum bound electrons

R. Piron, T. Blenski

In the present paper, we propose a variational average-atom model of electron-ion plasma performing a quantum treatment of bound electrons and accounting for correlations (VAAQBEC)…

Addendum to "Free-energy functional of the Debye-Hückel model of simple fluids"

R. Piron, T. Blenski

In previous publications [arXiv:1608.08430, arXiv:1704.06502], the authors have proposed Debye-Hückel-approximate free-energy functionals of the pair distribution functions for one…

Free-energy functional of the Debye-Hückel model of two-component plasmas

T. Blenski, R. Piron

We present a generalization of the Debye-Hückel free-energy-density functional of simple fluids to the case of two-component systems with arbitrary interaction potentials. It allow…

Free-energy functional of the Debye-Hückel model of simple fluids

R. Piron, T. Blenski

The Debye-Hückel approximation to the free-energy of a simple fluid is written as a functional of the pair correlation function. This functional can be seen as the Debye-Hückel equ…

Detailed computation of hot-plasma atomic spectra

Jean-Christophe Pain, Franck Gilleron, Thomas Blenski

We present recent evolutions of the detailed opacity code SCO-RCG which combines statistical modelings of levels and lines with fine-structure calculations. The code now includes t…

The hybrid opacity code SCO-RCG: recent developments

Jean-Christophe Pain, Franck Gilleron, Quentin Porcherot +1

Absorption and emission spectra of multicharged-ion plasmas contain a huge number of electron configurations and electric-dipolar lines, which can be handled by global methods. How…

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…

A consistent approach for mixed detailed and statistical calculation of opacities in hot plasmas

Quentin Porcherot, Jean-Christophe Pain, Franck Gilleron +1

Absorption and emission spectra of plasmas with multicharged-ions contain transition arrays with a huge number of coalescent electric-dipole (E1) lines, which are well suited for t…

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…

Thermodynamic coherence of the Variational Average-Atom in Quantum Plasmas (VAAQP) approach

R. Piron, T. Blenski, B. Cichocki

A new code called VAAQP (Variational Average-Atom in Quantum Plasmas) is reported. The model as well as main results of previous studies are briefly recalled. The code is based on…

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…
