Photoionization and its inverse, electron-ion recombination, are key processes that influence many astrophysical plasmas (and gasses), and the diagnostics that we use to analyse the plasmas. In this review we provide a brief overview of the…

Air-ionization chambers have been used in radiotherapy and particle therapy for decades. However, fundamental parameters in action in the detector responses are sparsely studied. In this work we aimed to measure the electronic attachment,…
We calculate the recombination spectra of the He-like ions He~I, C~V, N~VI, O~VII, Ne~IX, Mg~XI, Si~XIII, S~XV, Ar~XVII, Ca~XIX, and Fe~XXV. We include the following physical processes: radiative recombination, dielectronic recombination,…

Cold atom interferometers use guiding potentials that split the wave function of the Bose-Einstein condensate and then recombine it. We present theoretical analysis of the wave function recombination instability that is due to the weak…
For photoionized plasmas, electron energy-loss rates due to radiative recombination (RR) are required for thermal equilib- rium calculations, which assume a local balance between the energy gain and loss. While many calculations of total…
Most astrophysical plasmas entail a balance between ionization and recombination. We present new results from the powerful R-matrix method which yields in an ab initio manner: (I) self-consistent photoionization and recombination cross…

We argue that the emission of hadrons with transverse momentum up to about 5 GeV/c in central relativistic heavy ion collisions is dominated by recombination, rather than fragmentation of partons. This mechanism provides a natural…
