Recent advances in spectroscopy of strongly correlated plasmas

The Quasimolecular Model using a Two Centre basis to describe the electronic emitting structure gives an alternative treatment of line broadening in dense and hot plasmas. Two codes are developed: IDEFIX for the radiative properties, QMSPECTRA (postprocessed to the first one) for the spectral line shapes. The observability of dense plasma effects (PPS, asymmetries and satellite features) in spectroscopic measurements is analysed within the proposed model and taking care of the eventual integrations over density gradients.
