Fe XVII Emission from Hot, Collisional Plasmas

Description

The ratios of the Fe XVII 3s → 2p transitions to that of the dominant 3d → 2p transition measured in high-temperature tokamak plasmas are compared to solar and astrophysical observations. Good agreement is found, indicating that the collisional line formation processes active in opacity-free, low-density, high-temperature laboratory plasmas are a good description of those found in astrophysical plasmas
