Abstract

Modern numerical simulations of hot dense plasma require atomic data including equations of state, opacities, and coupling coefficients for energy exchange between photons, electrons, and fast and thermal ions. While these coefficients may be calculated by complicated quantum-statistical theories, in many cases the simpler semi-classical theory gives a reasonably accurate first approximation.
