Modeling of Thomson Scattering Spectra in High-Z, Laser-produced Plasmas

Theoretical calculations of a Thomson scattering cross section and dynamical form factors are presented for high-Z, laser-produced, inhomogeneous plasmas. Relevance of these results to astrophysical plasmas is pointed out. Comparisons with recent experimental observations are discussed with emphasis...

Zusammenfassung:Theoretical calculations of a Thomson scattering cross section and dynamical form factors are presented for high-Z, laser-produced, inhomogeneous plasmas. Relevance of these results to astrophysical plasmas is pointed out. Comparisons with recent experimental observations are discussed with emphasis on the effects of plasma inhomogeneity, ion-ion collisions, and non-Maxwellian distribution functions.
