By solving the rate equations, we get the population. In the rate equations, configuration-averaged rate coefficients are used and the cross sections are calculated based on the first-perturbation theory. Using the detailed configuration accounting with the term structures treated by the unresolved transition array model, we calculated the spectral-resolved opacity of Al plasmas. The results are compared with those of other theoretical models. From the comparison, we can see that the present results fit well with other models for low-Z plasmas. For high-Z plasmas, we will give detailed discussion in the future.展开更多

In the mode! of a spherically symmetric and isothermal wind with a steady mass loss, pure hydrogen composition as well as Sobolev approximation, our research indicates that compact HII regions are far away from LTE state. The collisional ionization and photoionization from excited levels have great effects on the size of an HII region, the distribution of departure coefficients and the flux ratio of observed spectral lines. They can be used to explain the infrared line excess and the line deficit problems of YSOs. We conclude that it is unreasonable to infer the spectral type, mass loss rate and foreground extinction of the central star from optically thin line recombination theory.展开更多
