利用类硼离子诊断日冕区热等离子体的电子密度

Electron density diagnostic for hot plasmas in coronal regime by using B-like ions

Guiyun Liang, Gang Zhao

摘要:

本文研究了Si X,S XII,Ar XIV和Fe XXII类硼原子光谱中$3d-2p$跃迁线的线比。碰撞辐射模型计算表明,谱线比对电子密度的敏感范围分别为$n_{\rm e}=4.0\times10^7-3.0\times10^{10}$ cm $^{-3}$,$4.0\times10^8-3.0\times10^{11}$ cm $^{-3}$,$3.0\times10^9-4.0\times10^{12}$ cm $^{-3}$和$2.0\times10^{12}-3.0\times10^{15}$ cm $^{-3}$.这补充了类氦离子的K壳层诊断。通过预测值和测量值之间的比较,在电子束离子阱(EBIT)等离子体的Lepson和合作者在劳伦斯利弗莫尔EBIT,估计为$n_{\rm e}=3.4^{+0.8}_{-0.6}\times10^{10}$厘米$^{-3}$和$5.6^{+1.0}_{-1.1}\times10^{10}$厘米$^{-3}$的硫和氩等离子体。在氩气的情况下,一个很好的协议,显示与实际的电子密度来自N VI K壳层光谱。我们进一步探讨了由钱德拉X射线天文台(\it)上的低能透射光栅光谱仪和高分辨率照相机所测得的恒星日冕光谱中Si X和S XII的$3d-2p$跃迁谱线。约束的电子密度显示出良好的协议与从C V和O VII K-壳层光谱测定。

英文摘要:

Line ratio of $3d-2p$ transition lines in boron-like spectra of Si X, S XII, Ar XIV and Fe XXII has been investigated. Collisional-radiative model calculations reveal that the line ratio is sensitive to the electron density in ranges of $n_{\rm e}=4.0\times10^7-3.0\times10^{10}$ cm$^{-3}$, $4.0\times10^8-3.0\times10^{11}$ cm$^{-3}$, $3.0\times10^9-4.0\times10^{12}$ cm$^{-3}$ and $2.0\times10^{12}-3.0\times10^{15}$ cm$^{-3}$, respectively. This complements the K-shell diagnostics of helium-like ions. By comparison between the prediction and the measured values, effective electron densities in the electron beam ion trap (EBIT) plasmas performed by Lepson and collaborators at Lawrence Livermore EBIT, are estimated to be $n_{\rm e}=3.4^{+0.8}_{-0.6}\times10^{10}$ cm$^{-3}$ and $5.6^{+1.0}_{-1.1}\times10^{10}$ cm$^{-3}$ for sulphur and argon plasmas. In case of argon, a good agreement is shown with the actual electron density derived from N VI K-shell spectrum. We further explore the $3d-2p$ transition lines of Si X and S XII in the stellar coronal spectra measured with the Low Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer combined with High Resolution Camera on board the {\it Chandra X-ray Observatory}. The constrained electron densities show a good agreement with the those determined from C V and O VII K-shell spectra.
