What is Effect of a transverse magnetic field on the plume emission in laser-produced plasma: An atomic analysis about?

We have investigated the effect of varying transverse magnetic field on the plasma plume emission of laserproduced lithium plasma. Two atomic transitions for lithium neutral Li (I) and two for Li ion LI (II) are taken for the study. It has been found that for Li (I), the emission from 670.8 nm transition (2s 2 S 1/2 ←2p 2 P 3/2′1/2 ) shows initial enhancement and then subsequent decrease for higher fields. Of course, the overall intensity is increased for all the fields when compared to the case of without field. On the other hand, for 610.3 nm (2p 2 P 1/2 ←3d 2 P 3/2′5/2 ), there is continuous decrease in intensity. Interestingly, for Li (II) transitions also, after an initial increase in intensity up to 0.08 Ta decrease is observed. From the atomic analysis, we find that for 670.8 nm line, the cause of initial enhancement is increase in electron impact excitation whereas for decreased intensity, increased field-induced ionization appears to be responsible mechanism. However, for 610.3 nm line, decrease in intensity appears to be due to decreased recombination. For Li (II), 478.8 nm (3p 1 P 1 ←4d 1 D 2 ) and 548.4 nm (2s 3 S 1 ←2p 3 P 2,1,0 ) transitions, initial increase appears
