Dielectronic scattering theory recombination scattering theory electron-ion recombination recombination electron-ion dielectronic recombination recombination (DR) is a two-step process that greatly increases the effciency for electrons and ions to recombine in a plasma. The process therefore plays an important role in the theoretical modeling of plasmas, whether in the laboratory or in astrophysical sources such as the solar corona. The purpose of this chapter is to present the theoretical formulation for DR, and the principal methods for calculating rate coefficients. The results are compared with experiment over a broad range of low-Z ions and high-Z ions where relativistic effects become important. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
