  • We propose approximate and accurate formulas for the number of electron configurations in hot plasmas. Such a quantity is an ingredient of algorithms devoted to the generation of configurations or superconfigurations, which is a pre-requisite of opacity calculations. One of the main formulas involves Bessel functions of fractional order and the procedure for improving the accuracy through a series expansion is explained.
