Abstract

A model for the Stark broadening of ions in a high-density plasma created by laser has been developed by taking account of the full effect of a two-component plasma. One of the objectives of the work was to include the effect of ion dynamics in an efficient way. This has been achieved by using a stochastic process for mixing the different components that constitute a line profile. With the systematic use of fast algorithms, a code has been developed with the ability of treating complex atomic structures.
