Variational Average-Atom in Quantum Plasmas (VAAQP) – Recent progress, virial theorem and applications to the equation-of-state of warm dense Be

The Variational Average-Atom in Quantum Plasmas (VAAQP) code is based on a fully variational theory of dense plasmas in equilibrium in which the neutrality of the Wigner-Seitz ion sphere is not required, contrary to the Inferno model. We report on some recent progress in the VAAQP model and numerical code. Three important points of the virial theorem derivation are emphasized and explained. The virial theorem is also used as an important tool allowing us to check the formulas and numerical methods used in the code. Applications of the VAAQP code are shown using as an example the equation-of-state of beryllium in the warm dense matter regime. Comparisons with the Inferno model, and with available experimental data on the principal Hugoniot are also presented.

Anti-screening in magnetically quantized plasmas

It is shown that in magnetically quantized plasmas, static Debye screening is changed. Furthermore, it is shown that under special circumstances, two electrons in such media may attract each other.

The first measured Ag I, Ag II and Ag III Stark broadening parameters

The Stark widths (W) and shifts (d) of two neutral (520.908 and 546.550 nm), eleven singly (211.382, 224.643, 224.874, 232.029, 232.468, 233.140, 241.141, 241.323, 243.781, 244.793 and 276.754 nm) and three doubly (216.189, 231.004 and 239.569 nm) ionized silver (Ag I, Ag II and Ag III, respectively) spectral lines have been measured in nitrogen plasma at about 18,000 K electron temperature and electron density ranged between 0.65 × 10²³ and 1.15 × 10²³ m^− 3. They are the first measured W and d values while those of the Ag II and Ag III lines are the first published data in these spectra. The modified version of the linear, low-pressure, pulsed arc was used as a plasma source operated in nitrogen with silver atoms, as impurities, evaporated from silver cylindrical plates located in the homogeneous part of the discharge. No theoretical predictions exist for W and d values of above mentioned spectral lines. Besides, we have checked the transition probability ratio of two investigated Ag I lines. An agreement with theoretical predictions was found.     

Dynamic polarizability of two‐electron ions under Debye screening

The effect of plasma screening on the dynamic dipole polarizability (DPP) of two‐electron ions Be²⁺, B³⁺, and C⁴⁺ has been investigated using highly correlated exponential wave functions within the framework of pseudostate summation technique and Debye screening concept. Plasma‐screening effect on the oscillator strengths (OS) of the ultraviolet and visible series has also been investigated for the systems Li⁺, Be²⁺, B³⁺, C⁴⁺. The DPP are reported as functions of screening parameters. The OS for S‐P transitions are also reported for various screening parameters. The OS and dynamic polarizability show interesting behavior with increasing screening strength and nuclear charge. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

A note on the growth of velocities in a collisionless plasma

We consider the initial value problem for the classical Vlasov–Poisson system with smooth compactly supported initial data. In the electrostatic case, we show that the size of the velocity support of the distribution function grows at most like t^2/7+bfε for any ε> 0 . Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
