Radiation from High Temperature Plasmas. Phase II.
Abstract
A large number of atomic physics and magnetohydrodynamic computer codes have been developed by members of the NRL Plasma Radiation Branch of the Naval Research Laboratory over several years. These codes involve the simulation of complex physical processes in a variety of plasma radiation research investigations. In this research effort, the structure of many of these codes was analyzed to improve the numerical procedures or to speed calculational time by code vectorization. In addition, graphic techniques were developed to improve the display of the results, which is important both to detect coding errors and to elucidate physical mechanisms. In this report, we describe the codes that were improved and present examples of the graphical displays now available for analysis of the calculational results. (Author)
