Steady-state radiative cooling rates for low-density, high-temperature plasmas

Douglass E. Post, +4 more
- 01 Nov 1977 - 
TL;DR: For 47 elements in the range 2 ≤ Z ≤ 92, steady-state radiative cooling rates, average charge states, and mean square charge states have been calculated for low-density, high-temperature plasmas (n e ≲ 10 16 electrons/cm 3 and T = 0.002-100 keV) as discussed by the authors.

The physics of the intergalactic medium

Avery Meiksin
- 05 Oct 2009 - 
TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the current understanding of the structure and physical properties of the intergalactic medium and its relation to galaxies is presented in this paper, concluding with comments on prospects for furthering the study of the IGM using future ground-based facilities and space-based experiments.

The escape of heavy atoms from the ionosphere of HD209458b. I. A photochemical–dynamical model of the thermosphere

Tommi Koskinen, +3 more
- 01 Nov 2013 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a hydrodynamic escape model for the upper atmosphere that includes all of the detected species in order to explain their presence at high altitudes, and to further constrain the temperature and velocity profiles.

The emission lines of quasars and similar objects

Kris Davidson, +1 more
- 01 Oct 1979 - 
TL;DR: The analysis of quasars' emission-line spectra has become an intricate subject which differs considerably from traditional, low-density nebular astrophysics as mentioned in this paper, and a review is intended to explain our present understanding of the situation, including some aspects of galactic nuclei whose luminosities are more modest than quasar.

Solar UV and X-ray spectral diagnostics

Giulio Del Zanna, +1 more
- 01 Jan 2018 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a review of the diagnostic methods used to measure electron densities, electron temperatures, differential emission measure (DEM), and relative chemical abundances is presented, focusing on the optically thin emission from the solar atmosphere, mostly found at UV and X-ray (XUV) wavelengths.
