Book excerpt: Excerpt from Measurements and Standards in Plasma-Physics and Astrophysics at the National Bureau of Standards To relate the many fields of specialization, a more basic approach is needed, which in essence creates a single broad problem and treats this problem from a systematic and quantitative point of view. The long-range objective is therefore the solution of the many-body problem of modern atomic physics in its full generality. Required to accomplish this goal are precision measurements and calculations of the many atomic and collective parameters which govern the behavior of the hot plasma or gas and which provide the diagnostic tools for a description of the state of the gas.
