Testing theoretical stellar interior and HED plasma opacities at the Sandia Z
This project represents the renewal of the longstanding and well known Opacity Project (OP) and aims to complete the opacities calculations using the state-of-the-art R-Matrix method as originally envisioned. The most direct aim of the project was to theoretically verify plasma opacities measured at the Z-facility at the Sandia Z National laboratory (SNL), and to explore potential applications to astrophysics and plasma physics (Bailey et al., 2015), in which three members of the OSU team (see Participants) were co-authors (Sultana Nahar, Chris Orban, Anil Pradhan).
