Photon Ionization along the Fe Isonuclear Sequence

POSTER

Abstract

A time-dependent close-coupling method is used to calculate one and two photon ionization cross sections along the Fe isonuclear sequence. Specific calculations are made for the ground configurations of Fe+14, Fe+15, Fe+16, and Fe+17. These calculations are in support of efforts to compare theory and experiment for iron opacities in hot dense plasmas.
