Collisional-radiative recombination and ionization coefficients, α andS, have been calculated on the basis of a non-hydrogen-like collisional-radiative model for atomic helium. The singlet and triplet systems have been considered as two individual systems coupled to each other through a set of elementary processes for collisions and radiation. Auto-ionization states have not been taken into account. Therefore the computations of the coefficient α have been limited to the range 125≦T e [°K]≦64000. (AboveT e=64 000 °K the auto-ionizing states considerably influence the recombination rates (di-electronic recombination).) The results show that the α- andS-coefficients for helium are more sensitive to radiative trapping than those for hydrogen under comparable absorption conditions. Concerning the α-values: For low electron densities one obtains approximately αhelium≈2αhydrogen, whereas at high electron densities one finds approximately αhelium≈1/2αhydrogen (to 1/10 αhydrogen at high electron temperatures). Collisional-radiative ionization coefficients for atomic helium have not yet been published in the past. In the present paper one finds for the first time a complete set ofS-coefficients for different degrees of radiative trapping.  相似文献

A method for obtaining the lower electron density limit for LTE in a nitrogen plasma is described, whereby the experimentally determined ratio of the collisional-radiative ionization and recombination coefficients (S/α) is compared with the corresponding LTE value (Saha ratio). It is argued that if the electron density is increased from values of about 1016cm-3, S/α should tend to the Saha ratio as LTE is approached. For NII and NIII spectral lines, this is found to happen at an electron density of a few times 1016cm-3 when the electron temperature is about 3 eV, in good agreement with the LTE criterion of Griem.  相似文献

The populations of excited hydrogen and helium atoms in non-L.T.E. plasmas have been calculated for two different physical situations, namely (i) no external radiation field present, and (ii) strong superposed radiation originating from a CO2, Ruby or Argon Ion Laser. The radiation field intervenes in the collisional-radiative model via two new terms: Photoionization and stimulated recombination induced by the Laser radiation field. The solutions of the rate equations yield a lowering of the populations when a plasma is irradiated by a Laser beam. The lowering is different for cold recombining and hot diffusion-dominated plasmas. At high radiation densities a saturation effect occurs, since the photoionization rate becomes equal to the rate of stimulated recombination. Measurements of the populations of excited H and He atoms in a glow discharge irradiated by a CO2 Laser beam of power density 105 W/cm2 are in broad agreement with the theoretical predictions.  相似文献

Various methods for calculating electron-ion recombination and ionization coefficients for argon (α and S) have been developed in the past. For given values of electron temperature and electron density, a large dispersion exists between the different results due to a great number of parameters. We have developed the method based on the collisional-radiative model to calculate α and S for limited conditions (atmospheric pressure; strong resonance radiation absorption) in order to obtain realistic values applicable in real cases such as arc plasmas. Influences of resonance radiation absorption and atom-atom collisions have been studied. The collisional-radiative recombination coefficient has been compared with results obtained by other calculation methods: the best agreement occurs with the “bottleneck” model for high values of electron density and temperature. Finally the comparison with available experimental results shows a good agreement between our computed values and experimental values when experimental and theoretical conditions are analogous.  相似文献

Coefficients for volume recombination and ionization have been calculated for a dense helium plasma of low degree of ionization. The calculations are based on a collisional-radiative model in which electron-atom, electron-electron-ion, atom-atom, and electron-atom-ion collisions intervene. Molecular species such as He 2 * and He 2 + have not been taken into account. The essential results are: At low temperatures and high neutral gas densities the recombination coefficient is proportional to the number density of neutral helium atoms. At high temperatures the presence of neutral particles practically does not influence the recombination process compared to pure ion-electron-electron recombination. At high neutral particle densities, high atom temperatures and low electron densities the ionization process is mainly due to atom-atom collisions. In this point our calculations are in relatively good agreement with recent shock tube measurements of Kalra and Measures (Phys. Fluids14, 2544 (1971)). It is emphasized that the simple two-step model for ionization by shock waves in the noble gases should be replaced by a more general collisional-radiative model in which the atomic level structure intervenes in more detail.  相似文献

The recombination and ionization coefficients have been re-calculated on the basis of the collisional-radiative model. The numerical results obtained deviate from those published byBates, Kingston, andMcWhirter. The deviations reach a factor of about four for the recombination and a factor ten for the ionization coefficients. The smallest deviations occur in the recombination coefficients when the plasma is assumed to be optically thin in all transitions. The conditions for the applicability of the collisional-radiative model are discussed.  相似文献

We discuss theO S ) corrections to lepton-pair production in a quark-gluon plasma in equilibrium, assuming the quarks are massless at zero temperature. The corrections are found to be very small in the domain of interest for ultrarelativistic heavy ions collisions. Interesting effects, however, appear at the annihilation threshold of the thermalized quarks where the correction factor has a (1/α S ) behavior.  相似文献

Coefficients have been calculated for collisional-radiative recombination of doubly ionized helium atoms with electrons and collisional-radiative ionization of singly into doubly ionized helium atoms due to electronic collisions and radiative absorption. Up to one hundred coupled equations have been solved which corresponds to a level system in which levels up to principal quantum number one hundred have been taken into account. The numerical results are presented in form of curves for a large number of parameters corresponding to very different experimental situations. Comparison of our values with those experimentally determined by Mosburg and by Gippiuset al. is made.  相似文献

The power radiated by an optically thin, low-density (Ne ≤ 1014 electrons/cm3) plasma has been calculated for the electron temperature range 1–106 eV taking into account resonance line emission, direct recombination radiation, dielectronic recombination radiation, and bremsstrahlung from the ions of a given element. The ionization structure has been determined by using a corona equilibrium model in which collisional ionization and inner-shelled excitation followed by autoionization are balanced by direct radiative and dielectronic recombination. Based on the results for respresentative elements from carbon through nickel, graphs are presented of the maximum radiated power, the maximum emission temperature, and the mean charge at the maximum for each shell as functions of the atomic number Z. Assuming that the maximum emission temperature can be achieved, aluminum and iron are predicted to be the most efficient K-shell radiators for Z ≤28.  相似文献

A collisional-radiative model of H- and He-like ions is constructed. The model allows a determination of excited-state population densities for arbitraryN e ,T e , and ion composition. The coefficientsr 0 andr 1, the collisional-radiative ionization and recombination coefficients for H-like ions and for the He-like ions F VIII and Mg XI are calculated. The methods of plasma diagnostics from the relative intensities of spectral lines are substantiated. It is indicated that the possibility of measuringN e from the resonance-to-intercombination line intensity ratio of a [He] ion is determined by the knowledge of the ion composition andT e .

Using a time-dependent approach, a collisional-radiative model is developed for an oxygen plasma. Effective recombination and ionization coefficients are calculated for two specific cases, optically thin and optically thick in bound-bound u.v. radiation. The steady-state population densities for neutral and ionic states are presented in terms of their deviations from Saha equilibrium predictions. These results show the approach of the plasma to a state of local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) as a function of electron temperature and density. The computations are for temperatures between 1.0 and 3.0 eV and electron densities between 1016 and 1019 cm-3.  相似文献

The order ()5, α()4, and α()4 log() energy denominator and recoil corrections to the leading order ()4 decay amplitude for the 23S1 → 11S0 + one photon transition are considered. It is found that order α()4 terms arise in the individual diagrams but exactly cancel upon summation. In view of the results of this and other recent theoretical work it is concluded that the rates predicted by pure quantum electrodynamics are known to considerable precision. The recent discrepancy between theory and experiment in the decay rate for several helium-like ions appears to have been resolved by placing the detector farther downstream from the foil where the metastable states are produced. At present, all the experimental values are in good agreement with the theory.  相似文献

Penning electron distributions arising from the ionization of Na and K by He (1s 2s 1,3 S)-metastables in thermal collisions, as well as the absolute cross section for Penning ionization of Na by He (23 S) and relative cross sections for ionization of Na and K by He(21 S) and He(23 S) are measured. It is shown that under fairly general conditions the well depth ε* of the interaction potential between the metastable and the target particle can be obtained directly from the measured electron distributions. ε*-values are reported for the moleules He(1s 2s 1,3 S)-Na(2 S), K(2 S) (2,2Ω), and for He(1s 2s 1,3 S)-Hg(1 S)(1,3Ω). These latter values are obtained from previously published measurements and are to be considered preliminary. Further, additional evidence is given, that Penning ionization with metastables is an electron exchange process.  相似文献

The photoelectron spectra of atomic indium and thallium have been obtained using a pseudo-atomic beam technique. Ionizations from the np, ns and (n ? 1)d shells (n = 5 for In and n = 6 for Tl) were observed using He(I) and HE(II) radiation. The (np)?1 ionization results in a single 1S0 ionized state, whereas the (ns)?1 and ((n ? 1)d)?1 ionizations both result in states additional to those allowed for a one-electron ionization process. This is attributed to configuration interaction in the final ionized state.  相似文献

Absolute measurement for He-α resonance (1s2 1S0?1s2p1 P 1, at 40.2 Å) line emission from a laser-produced carbon plasma has been studied as a function of laser intensity. The optimum laser intensity is found to be ≈1.3×1012 W/cm2 for the maximum emission of 3.2 × 1013 photons sr?1 pulse?1. Since this line lies in the water window spectral region, it has potential application in x-ray microscopic imaging of biological sample in wet condition. Theoretical calculation using corona model for the emission of this line is also carried out with appropriate ionization and radiative recombination rate coefficients  相似文献

We present electron—ion coincidence spectra of the chlorofluoromethanes obtained after He(I)-photoionization and Penning ionization by He(23S).Remarkable differences between both modes of ionization exist for CF3Cl. Our tentative interpretation suggests the existence of a strongly bound interaction potential of ionic character between He(23S) and CF3Cl, in addition to the essentially flat covalent potential.  相似文献

The hook method has been applied to the positive-column discharge plasma of helium and the population density of the lowest-lying excited levels, 21,3S and 21,3P, was measured. The results are compared with data obtained by use of the line absorption method, and discrepancies between these data are discussed. The result is also compared with a calculation based on application of the collisional-radiative model.  相似文献

Electron energy peak shifts and peak shapes were determined in the ionization of H2O, D2O, H2S and SO2 by Ne(3P2) and He(21S, 23S) metastable atoms. The shifts are large, especially in ionization of H2O and D2O into the ionic ground state and are probably mostly due to chemical interaction during the collision.In a previous paper the electron energy distribution curves for ionization of CO, HCl, HBr, N2O, NO2, CO2, COS and CS2 by helium, neon and argon metastables and the characteristics of this ionization were described1. In this paper the series of triatomic molecules was extended to the molecules H2O, D2O, H2S and SO2. Because all these molecules have considerable dipole moments it could be expected that the peak shifts might be enhanced as compared with other triatomic molecules.  相似文献

The shape and relative intensities S α=I1s )/I1s ), S β=I1s )/I2) of the short-wavelength X-ray Lα1 and Lβ2 satellites arising from the radiative decay of the states corresponding to L 3 M 4,5 configurations were investigated experimentally for Hf, Ta, W, Re, and Os. It was established that, in the case of W, the values S α=2.5%, S β=4.2% are five to seven times larger than those for Hf and Ta, and by (30–60)% smaller than those for Re and Os. On the basis of the obtained values of S α,S β, as well as the observed two-component structure of the Lα1 and Lβ2 satellites, it is concluded that the Coster-Kronig L 1-L 3 M 5 transitions (CK) are allowed by the energy conservation law even for tungsten, and, starting with this element, they represent a major channel of generation of the states of LL 3 M 5 configuration. Possible features of such a process for the W atom are discussed in comparison with those for Re and Os.  相似文献

The cross section of the11B(n, α)8Li reaction has been measured atE n=7.6 to 12.6 MeV. The neutron beam was produced via theD(d, n)3He reaction and aBF 3 counter (with naturalB isotopic composition) served both as target for the11B nuclides and as detector for the observation of the delayedα-activity of8Li. The data match well with previous results obtained atE n =12.5 to 20.0 MeV. Using the principle of detailed balance the data were converted to the case of the8Li(α, n 0)11B reaction. The associated astrophysicalS(E) factor is dominated by a resonance atE R=0.58 MeV of widthΓ R =200 keV, withS(E R )=8400 MeV b. ThisS (E R ) value for the n0 channel alone is already three times higher than the constantS(E) factor assumed previously and, thus, strengthens the significance of inhomogeneous Big Bang nucleosynthesis.  相似文献
