Plasma pressure broadening for few-electron emitters including strong electron collisions within a quantum-statistical theory

To apply spectroscopy as a diagnostic tool for dense plasmas, a theoretical approach to pressure broadening is indispensable. Here, a quantum-statistical theory is used to calculate spectral line shapes of few-electron atoms. Ionic perturbers are treated quasistatically as well as dynamically via a...
