We have studied the radiative decay of the 2s state of one-electron and one-muon ions, where the two-photon mechanism plays an important role. Due to the nuclear size corrections the radiative decay of the 2s state in the electron and muon…
A new means of incorporating radiative transfer into smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) is introduced, which builds on the success of two previous methods - the polytropic cooling approximation as devised by Stamatellos et al (2007), and…
We report on the first results of experiments to measure the recombination rate of hydrogen on surfaces of astrophysical interest. Our measurements give lower values for the recombination efficiency (sticking probability S x probability of…
Simple analytic formulas are considered for the energy radiated in low frequency bremsstrahlung from fully ionized gases. A formula that has been frequently cited over many years turns out to have only a limited range of validity, more…
A theoretical investigation of the radiative capture of an electron into a bound state of heavy, hydrogen-like ion is presented. Special attention is paid to the question of how the linear polarization of the emitted radiation is affected…

We investigate entanglement transfer from a system of two spin-entangled electron-hole pairs, each placed in a separate single mode cavity, to the photons emitted during their recombination process. Dipole selection rules and a splitting…
The light curves of type-II supernovae (SNe) are believed to be highly affected by recombination of hydrogen that takes place in their envelopes. In this work, we analytically investigate the transition from a fully ionized envelope to a…

A free electron can form a bound state with an atomic center $A$ upon photo emission (radiative recombination). In the presence of a neighboring atom $B$, such a bound state can, under certain conditions, be also formed via resonant…
