We investigate the rates for multielectron recombination within a dense plasma environment in local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE). We find that these multielectron recombination rates can be high within dense plasmas, and they should be…

Recent X-ray study of middle-aged supernova remnants (SNRs) reveals strong radiative recombination continua (RRCs) associated with overionized plasmas, of which the origin still remains uncertain. We report our discovery of an RRC in the…
In a recombining plasma the metastable states are known to accumulate population thereby slowing down the recombination process. We show that an account of the doubly-excited autoionizing states, formed due to collisional recombination of…

A recent measurement of the dielectronic recombination (DR) of W^20+ [Schippers et al Phys. Rev. A83, 012711 (2011)] found an exceptionally large contribution from near threshold resonances (<1eV). This still affected the Maxwellian rate…
For the reliable analysis and modelling of astrophysical, laser-produced and fusion plasmas, atomic data are required for a number of parameters, including energy levels, radiative rates and electron impact excitation rates. Such data are…
To investigate spectra of kilonovae in the NLTE phase (t>= 1 week), we perform atomic calculations for dielectronic recombination (DR) rates for the light r-process elements Se (Z = 34), Rb (Z = 37), Sr (Z = 38), Y (Z = 39), and Zr (Z = 40)…
We calculate the electron recombination rates with target ions W$^{q+}$, $q = 18$ -- $25$, as functions of electron energy and electron temperature (i.e. the rates integrated over the Maxwellian velocity distribution). Comparison with…
It is shown that above the temperature of maximum abundance, recombination rates into the excited states of He-like ions that are calculated using earlier, more approximate methods differ markedly from rates obtained from recent…

We examine the effects of low-temperature, or $\Delta$$n = 0$, dielectronic recombination (DR) on the ionization balance of the Fe M-Shell (Fe IX through Fe XVI). Since $\Delta$$n = 0$ rates are not available for these ions, we have derived…
Emission and absorption features from C-like ions serve as temperature and density diagnostics of astrophysical plasmas. $R$-matrix electron-impact excitation data sets for C-like ions in the literature merely cover a few ions, and often…
We compare the photon emission rates from hot hadronic matter with in-medium mass shift and Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP). It is observed that the WA98 data can be well reproduced by hadronic initial state with initial temperature $\sim 200$ MeV…
