Lorentz TestsAt a Lorentz Centre meeting at Leiden during 8-12 August 2016, a set of atomic code tests were created for collision equilibrium plasmas. This directory contains the results of tests 1, 2, 3 and 6 as derived with CHIANTI (the other tests are not relevant). The IDL routines are available in the CHIANTI IDL directory,
in subdirectory utilities/lorentz. Test 1 - charge state distributionsComputes charge state distributions at three different temperatures. IDL> lorentz_test_1_csd Test 2 - radiative powerComputes the total radiative losses (lines + continuum) from each element. IDL> lorentz_test_2_power, loss_rate Test 3 - strong linesComputes the 100 strongest lines from three isothermal plasmas. IDL> lorentz_test_3_top_lines CHIANTI 9.0 results for 1 MK
plasma Test 7 - line formationComputes the contributions of different atomic processes to a set of key X-ray lines. The list of lines is given in the document that describes the tests (see above). IDL> lorentz_test_7_levelpop Page maintained by Dr Peter R Young. |
