Radiative transition of hydrogen-like ions in quantum plasma

ABSTRACTAt fusion plasma electron temperature and number density regimes of 1 × 103–1 × 107 K and 1 × 1028–1 × 1031/m3, respectively, the excited states and radiative transition of hydrogen-like ions in fusion plasmas are studied. The results show that quantum plasma model is more suitable to describe the fusion plasma than the Debye screening model. Relativistic correction to bound-state energies of the low-Z hydrogen-like ions is so small that it can be ignored. The transition probability decreases with plasma density, but the transition probabilities have the same order of magnitude in the same number density regime.
