Abstract

A new atomic model is proposed which takes advantage of unified characteristics in the level dynamics of excited states. This unified behavior is justified by the collisional-radiative model for medium-Z plasmas and is found to be well approximated by the average ion model. In the new model, the energy functional form of the population probability constructed from the average ion model is used to estimate the level population of ions having different charge from that of the average ion. The model is applied to the X-ray generation in laser-irradiated Au plasmas.
