متن کاملX-ray plasma diagnostics
Results and methods are given for the investigation of hot laboratory and astrophysical plasmas parameters in a soft X-ray region 1 = 1-40 A. Line spectra of multiply charged ions are usually studied exper~mentally, and relative Intensities of spectral lines are measured. Achievements of modern physics of electronion collisions and theoretical spectroscopy make it possible to obtain for transie...
متن کاملNe X X - ray Emission due to Charge Exchange in M 82
Recent X-ray observations of star-forming galaxies such as M82 have shown the Lyβ/Lyα line ratio of Ne X to be in excess of predictions for thermal electron impact excitation. Here we demonstrate that the observed line ratio may be due to charge exchange and can be used to constrain the ion kinetic energy to be . 500 eV/u. This is accomplished by computing spectra and line ratios via a range of...
متن کاملUV and X-ray Spectral Lines of FeXXIII Ion for Plasma Diagnostics
We have calculated X-ray and UV spectra of Be-like Fe (FeXXIII) ion in collisional radiative model including all fine-structure transitions among the 2s, 2s2p, 2p, 2snl, and 2pnl levels where n = 3 and 4, adopting data for the collision strengths by Zhang & Sampson (1992) and by Sampson, Goett, & Clark (1984). Some line intensity ratios can be used for the temperature diagnostics. We show 5 rat...
متن کاملImpact polarization and charge exchange as diagnostics of proton beams
Linear polarization of the hydrogen Hα line has been observed in solar flares. This polarization is actually explained as induced by anisotropic collisional excitation of the n = 3 level by vertical proton beams with an energy of a few keV. At such energies, charge exchange between the proton beam and the local H atoms is important and must be taken into account in the statistical equilibrium e...
