Electron parallel closures for various ion charge numbers

Abstract

Electron parallel closures for the ion charge number Z=1 [J.-Y. Ji and E. D. Held, Phys. Plasmas 21, 122116 (2014)] are extended for 1 Z10. Parameters are computed for various Z with the same form of the Z=1 kernels adopted. The parameters are smoothly varying in Z and hence can be used to interpolate parameters and closures for noninteger, effective ion charge numbers.
