| Research Abstract |
Photoionized plasmas are encountered in astrophysics wherever low temperature gas/ plasma is bathed in a strong radiation field. X-ray line emissions in the several keV spectral range were observed from accreting clouds of binary systems, such as CYGNUS X-3 and VELA X-1, in which high-intensity x-ray continua from compact objects(neutron stars, black holes or white dwarfs) irradiate the cold and rarefied clouds. X-ray continuum-induced line emission accurately describes the accreting clouds, but experimental verification of this photoionized plasma model is scarce. Here we report the generation of photoionized plasmas in the laboratory under wellcharacterized conditions using a high-power laser. A blackbody radiator at a temperature of 500 eV, corresponding to a compact object, was created by means of a laser-driven implosion. Atomic kinetic calculations imply the importance of direct K-shell photoionization by incoming hard x-rays.
