An analytic calculation is made of the effect of plasma density fluctuations on some spectroscopic diagnostics commonly used in the study of HII regions and planetary nebulae. To permit an analytic treatment, attention is restricted to the…
For atoms embedded in dense plasma, the plasma screening effects will greatly alter their structure and dynamics, and then determine the radiation transport properties of the plasma. In the present work, a new statistical model is proposed…
Relativistically broadened and redshifted 6.4 -- 6.9 keV iron K lines are observed from many accretion powered objects, including X-ray binaries and active galactic nuclei (AGN). Existence of gas close to the central engine implies large…
Line ratio of O IV 1407.3 \AA/1401.1 \AA\- is calculated using mostly our own atomic and collisional data. Energy levels and oscillator strengths needed for this calculation have been calculated using a Hartree-Fock relativistic (HFR)…
[Abridged] Photoionization, whether by starlight or other sources, has difficulty in accounting for the observed spectra of the optical filaments that often surround central galaxies in large clusters. Our first paper examined whether…
