One-Component-Plasma: Going Beyond Debye-Hückel
نویسندگان
چکیده
Using field-theoretic methods, we calculate the internal energy for the One-Component Plasma (OCP). We go beyond the recent calculation by Brilliantov [N. Brilliantov, Contrib. Plasma Phys. 38, 489 (1998)] by including non-Gaussian terms. We show that, for the whole range of the plasma parameter Γ , the effect of the higher-order terms is small and that the final result is not improved relative to the Gaussian theory when compared to simulations.

Long Time Behavior of Solutions to Nernst–Planck and Debye–Hückel Drift–Diffusion Systems
We study the convergence rates of solutions to drift-diffusion systems (arising from plasma, semiconductors and electrolytes theories) to their self-similar or steady states. This analysis involves entropytype Lyapunov functionals and logarithmic Sobolev inequalities.
متن کاملModified Debye-hückel Electron Shielding and Penetration Factor
Screened potential, modified by non standard electron cloud distributions responsible for the shielding effect on fusion of reacting nuclei in astrophysical plasmas, is derived. The case of clouds with depleted tails in space coordinates is discussed. The modified screened potential is obtained both from statistical mechanics arguments based on fluctuations of the inverse of the Debye-Hückel ra...
متن کاملA Molecular Debye-Hückel Theory and Its Applications to Electrolyte Solutions
In this report, a molecular Debye-Hückel theory for ionic fluids is developed. Starting from the macroscopic Maxwell equations for bulk systems, the dispersion relation leads to a generalized Debye-Hückel theory which is related to the dressed ion theory in the static case. Due to the multi-pole structure of dielectric function of ionic fluids, the electric potential around a single ion has a m...
متن کاملDebye–Hückel theory for two-dimensional Coulomb systems living on a finite surface without boundaries
We study the statistical mechanics of a multicomponent two-dimensional Coulomb gas which lives on a finite surface without boundaries. We formulate the Debye– Hückel theory for such systems, which describes the low-coupling regime. There are several problems, which we address, to properly formulate the Debye–Hückel theory. These problems are related to the fact that the electric potential of a ...
