title: Coupling of detailed configuration kinetics and hydrodynamics in materials submitted to x-ray free-electron-laser irradiation.
abstract: We describe a model for the study of the interaction of short x-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) pulses with matter. Hydrodynamics is solved in one-dimensional planar geometry together with XFEL energy deposition, transport by thermal conduction and electron-ion energy exchange. Along with XFEL energy deposition, a proper detailed configuration accounting atomic physics model has been implemented in line with the calculations. Simulations typical of current XFEL conditions of irradiation are presented and discussed. Finally, the corresponding spectral emission of this XFEL-heated matter is calculated with the unresolved transition array formalism.
