Parametric potential for modelling of highly charged heavy ions

Abstract

Parametric electron-ion potential for fast estimation of atomic data required for “on-line” calculations in inertial confinement fusion (ICF) driven by heavy ions is presented. Comparisons of our results (outer- and inner-shell ionization energies, oscillator strengths, and logarithmic mean excitation energies) with experimental and self-consistent-field (SCF) calculation values are made. Using the wave functions generated by the previously mentioned potential, generalized oscillator strengths and integrated inelastic collision cross sections are computed within the frame of Born approximation.
