✦ Synopsis

The transient time for ionization and recombination is estimated as a function of the electron temperature and density, for various low atomic number elements, assuming a collisional radiative model. These estimates are useful for choosing a model for the ionization dynamics in plasmas.

In this paper, a relatively simple model is perturbed state, be smaller than the time T 11
