In this article we review the current state of the field of solar neutrinos, including flavor
oscillations, nonstandard effects, solar models, cross section measurements, and the broad …

Context. The chemical composition of the Sun is a fundamental yardstick in astronomy,
relative to which essentially all cosmic objects are referenced. As such, having accurate …

Neutrinos emitted in the carbon, nitrogen, oxygen (CNO) fusion cycle in the Sun are a sub-
dominant, yet crucial component of solar neutrinos whose flux has not been measured yet …

For the theoretical study of X and extreme-UV spectra of ions in plasmas, quantum
mechanics brings more detailed results than statistical physics. However, it is impossible to …

The thermodynamic as well as optical properties of strongly coupled plasmas depend
crucially on the average degree of ionization and the ionic state composition, which …

Recently developed free-energy density functional theory (DFT)-based methodology for
optical property calculations of warm dense matter has been applied for studying L-shell …

The internal solar structure predicted by the standard solar model disagrees with the
helioseismic observations even by utilizing the most updated physical inputs, such as the …

The calculation of the optical properties of hot dense plasmas with a model that has self-
consistent plasma physics is a grand challenge for high energy density science. Here we …

The electrical conductivity in dense plasmas can be calculated with the relaxation-time
approximation provided that the interaction potential between the scattering electron and the …

Aims. In the context of black-hole accretion disks, the main goal of the present study is to
estimate the plasma environment effects on the atomic structure and radiative parameters …
