[FLASH-USERS] [EXT] RE: Question on Tungsten Plasma Simulation

[Hansen, Eddie]

As far as EOS table formats accepted by FLASH, no. There is a tool named ‘opacplot’ that can convert between multiple table formats (more opacity formats than EOS formats), but I’m not sure how useful that will be for you.

Dear Eddie,

Thank you for your email.

Are there any alternatives for materials having atomic number less than 54, besides ionmix and PrOpacEOS?

Much obliged

Jesse Chen

The other table options that are most often used in FLASH are PrOpacEOS, which is from Prism and requires a paid license, and SESAME which is export-controlled by LANL. Either option might require special permission for high-Z materials like tungsten and higher.

Subject: [FLASH-USERS] Question on Tungsten Plasma Simulation
Dear Flash Users ,

I was intending to use the LaserSlab module as a template to simulate the Tungsten plasma, only to find that the IONMIX does not support materials having atomic number larger than 54.
Are there alternatives to produce .cn4 file of W target , or any other methods to simulate W target directly by FLASH?

Much obliged,

Humbly yours,

Jesse Chen
