Numerical study of radiating xenon plasma

Abstract

In this paper numerical simulation of the spectral properties of xenon plasma is carried out for various parameters (temperature, density, pressure) within the framework of the Saha-Boltzmann approximation. For calculations, pre-prepared atomic databases with varying degrees of detail of ion states were used. The effect of ionization potential depression was taken into account. The spectral absorption coefficients and emissivity, as well as the spectral radiation energy flux for a homogeneous plasma in a spherically symmetric geometry, were obtained. The identification of strong spectral lines in the wavelength ranges of interest has been carried out.
