    The introduction of gases like nitrogen or neon for cooling the edge region of magnetically confined fusion plasmas has triggered a renewed interest in state selective cross sections necessary for plasma diagnostics by means of charge exchange recombination spectroscopy. To improve the quality of spectroscopic data analysis, charge exchange and ionisation cross sections for N7+^{7+} + H(n=1,2n=1,2) have been calculated using two different theoretical approaches, namely the atomic-orbital close-coupling method and the classical trajectory Monte Carlo method. Total and state resolved charge exchange cross sections are analysed in detail. In the second part, we compare two collision systems involving equally charged ions, C6+^{6+} and N6+^{6+} on atomic hydrogen. The analysis of the data lead to the conclusion that deviations between these two impurity ions are practically negligible. This finding is very helpful when calculating cross sections for collision systems with heavier not completely stripped impurity ions.Comment: 21 pages, 10 figures, 6 data table

    w2dynamics: Local one- and two-particle quantities from dynamical mean field theory

    No full text
    We describe the hybridization-expansion continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo code package “w2dynamics”, developed in Wien and Würzburg. We discuss the main features of this multi-orbital quantum impurity solver for the Anderson impurity model, dynamical mean field theory as well as its coupling to density functional theory. The w2dynamics package allows for calculating one- and two-particle quantities; it includes worm and further novel sampling schemes. Details about its download, installation, functioning and the relevant parameters are provided
