Non-equilibrium of high-temperature nitrogen and oxygenA stationary colloidal-radiative model for determination of production of electrons, excited atoms, and spectral line intensities in high-temperature atomic N and O is presented. The populations of several atomic levels and partition functions, and the intensities of several lines, are calculated in a wide range of conditions. Transport of radiation is included by coupling the rate equations for production of the electrons and excited atoms with the Holstein escape factors which are not constant, but depend on plasma conditions.
