Abstract:

High energy density (HED, >10^{11}J/m3) matter widely exists in the astrophysical environments (Big Bang, supernova and solar core, etc), inertial confined fusion, strong shock wave and nuclear weapons. The physics at these extreme conditions is becoming a new frontier for science and technology. The knowledge of atomic and molecular physics is essential for simulation and diagnostics of HED matter. In this talk, we review the research advance on the atomic and molecular processes in HED matter.
