Quantum defect theory

TL;DR: Quantum defect theory (QDT) as mentioned in this paper is a unified theory of bound states, including series perturbations, autoionisation and electron-ion scattering, both elastic and inelastic.

Updated Atomic Data and Calculations for X-Ray Spectroscopy

TL;DR: AtomDB 2.0.2 as discussed by the authors is a database of atomic data and a plasma modeling code with a focus on X-ray astronomy, including new ionization balance data, state-selective recombination data, and updated collisional excitation data for many ions, including the iron L-shell ions from Fe+16 to Fe+23 and all of the hydrogen- and helium-like sequences.

Dynamical theory of the solar wind

TL;DR: A review of the basic theoretical dynamical properties of an atmosphere with an extended temperature strongly bound by gravity can be found in this paper, where it is shown that sufficient conditions for supersonic expansion are T(r) declining asymptotically less rapidly than 1/r.

Updated Atomic Data and Calculations for X-ray Spectroscopy

TL;DR: AtomDB 2.0.2 as mentioned in this paper is a database of atomic data and a plasma modeling code with a focus on X-ray astronomy, which includes several major updates to the fundamental atomic structure and process data held within AtomDB, incorporating new ionization balance data, state-selective recombination data, and updated collisional excitation data for many ions.

Improving Predictions for Helium Emission Lines

TL;DR: In this article, the authors combined the detailed He I recombination model of Smits with the collisional transitions of Sawey & Berrington in order to produce new accurate helium emissivities that include the effects of collisional excitation from both the 2 3S and 2 1S levels.
