Abstract

A model for calculating the profile of spectral lines emitted by multielectron emitters in a hot plasma is described. The Stark broadening is included in the model by using the static ion approximation and an impact approximation for the electrons. The atomic data required for the line-shape calculation are extracted from an atomic structure code and prepared as data necessary for the excited and ground levels of the radiative transition. For the cases where electron broadening is much smaller than the average ionic Stark shift, an approximation is proposed to obtain rapidly a diagonal form of the evolution operator for the emitter. Line shapes of lithiumlike and berylliumlike ions have been calculated under the conditions of recent experiments performed in laser-produced plasmas.
