Abstract
An electron collsional mechanism of the intense line radiation generation in a high density and high electron temperature plasma is elucidated in principle, and demonstrated by numerical simulations. The simulation code is described. Three kinds of targets -- low density targets, solid targets, and cavity targets -- are simulated. The function of electron thermal conduct is discussed. Laser pulse width effects on the intense line radiation generation are numerically investigated, and the optimum pulse width is given. The prepulse behavior on the latter two kinds of targets is observed.
