Modeling

A reliable plasma diagnostics requires both accurate measurements and solid theoretical support in interpretation of the experimental results. Since our primary experimental tool is spectroscopy (in other words, study of the light emitted by atoms or ions), our theorists try to understand what are the plasma conditions that bring about the measured light emission. They are exploring a few directions in theoretical plasma physics:
