X-ray-transport effects in laser-irradiated disks
Description
X-ray emission spectra are important diagnostics for studying laser-coupling and energy transport. We have begun exploring the sensitivity of such measurements to the plasma density and temperature profiles. The one-dimensional radiation transport equation is solved for various temperature and density profiles. Spectra are calculated in both the LTE and CRE approximations, bracketing the relevant ionization regimes. Their applicability to real plasmas is discussed. The calculated spectra are compared with measurements from different Z targets. This comparison explores the possible temperature and density parameters. Such comparisons can be used to interpret present experimental results as well as guide the design of future experiments
