Scattering processes and electrical conductivity of partially ionized hydrogen plasma

We consider partially ionized hydrogen plasma for the density region n_e = (10¹⁸ ÷ 10²²) cm^—3. The cross sections for scattering processes between the particles are calculated within the partial wave method. Charged particles in the system (electrons, protons) interact via an effective potential that takes into account threeparticle correlations. The Buckingham polarization potential is used to describe electron‐atom and proton‐atom interactions. The electrical conductivity is determined using the Chapman‐Enskog method. The results are compared with other available data.
