Opacity
Overview
A comprehensive review is presented on opacity and equation of state calculations for gases, plasmas, and grains. The continuous trasnformation of the equilibrium composition of these phases of matter as a function of temperature and density is emphasized. Absorption and scattering processes are described that affect opacities in regions of interest to science and technology, up to temperatures of about 1 x 10(9) (o) K and densities of about 10(9) g cm (-3). Reliability of results based on various approximations are given and cross sections are compared with experimental values where available. Opacity tables are presented for air, "glass", a few elements, and astrophysical mixtures.
