AbstractThe effects of dynamic temperature and electron–electron collisions on the elastic electron–ion collision are investigated in a collisional plasma. The second-order eikonal analysis and the velocity-dependent screening length are employed to derive the eikonal phase shift and eikonal cross section as functions of collision energy, electron collision frequency, Debye length, impact parameter, and thermal energy. It is interesting to find out that the electron–electron collision effect would be vanished; however, the dynamic temperature effect is included in the first-order approximation. We have found that the dynamic temperature effect strongly enhances the eikonal phase shift as well as the eikonal cross section for electron–ion collision since the dynamic screening increases the effective shielding distance. In addition, the detailed characteristic behavior of the dynamic screening function is also discussed.

The process of induced bremsstrahlung is studied and it is found that anisotropy in the electron distribution can lead to the amplification of radiation. The gain rate is ,Λ where ν is the electron-ion collision frequency, ωp and ω the plasma and radiation frequency, and Λ a numerical factor which is positive only for anisotropic distributions.

We describe a method of computing electronic transport coefficients in liquid and amorphous metals by numerical evaluation of the Kubo formula for a cluster of a few hundred atoms. s and d states are treated equally, and no assumptions need be made about the number of carriers per atom. Finite size and shape effects, and other computational aspects, are examined. The method is applied to liquid La. The calculated (measured) values are 151 μΩ∙cm (135 μΩ∙cm) for the resistivity, and −7 ± 1 μV/K (−7.5 μV/K) for the thermoelectric power. The relative contributions of s and d states to electronic transport are computed, and we find the d states to be dominant.
