“…It is also worth mentioning that radiative properties (i.e., absorption and emission spectra) of carbon and plastic were studied by Lee et al [51], still within the STA theory. Krief et al [52][53][54] have recently developed a new STA code for calculating absorption and emission spectra of LTE plasmas. The code follows the prescriptions of Bar-Shalom et al with several improvements.…”

“…Two cases are considered: (1) Iron (Z=26) at typical conditions of the recent Sandia Z experiments [12,15], with temperature T = 182eV and density ρ = 0.13g/cm 3 and (2) Gold (Z=79) with temperature T = 200eV and density ρ = 0.1g/cm 3 . The calculations were performed using the relativistic average-atom model implemented in the STA code STAR [3,26,28,29,31,43,51]. The number of bound shells was limited to a principle atomic number of n max = 8 (which corresponds to 64 relativistic orbitals), since highly excited bound orbitals can be accounted for by using the method detailed in Ref.…”

“…A relativistic electronic configuration C is defined by a set of occupation numbers {q s } on relativistic s = (nlj) orbital shells, which are full solutions of the Dirac equation. In the statistical configuration approximation (neglecting the atomic structure within configurations [30,31]), the occupation of a configuration C is given by the Boltzmann distribution:…”

“…Metallic elements have a significant contribution to the opacity in the solar interior, although they only constitute a few percent of the mixture, since these metallic elements are not completely ionized and give rise to strong bound-bound and bound-free absorption. This gives rise to a connection between the solar composition problem and the theoretical uncertainty in the calculation of opacities at stellar interior conditions [4][5][6][7].…”

“…We have recently developed [6][7][8][9][10] the atomic code STAR (STA-Revised), for the calculation of opacities of local thermodynamic equilibrium plasmas, by the STA method [11]. The code was used to investigate and analyze sensitivities and uncertainties in the calculation of solar interior opacities.…”
