AbstractWe propose a new approach to calculate the populations of the different ionic states and ionization stages that may exist in a plasma in thermodynamic equilibrium. A self-consistent scheme is solved for each ionization stage, which couples the local density of free electrons and the atomic structure of this stage.

Recent computer experiments on liquid Mg and Bi (and also on dense hydrogen) have focussed anew on issues involving static and dynamical structure in plasmas. In Mg and Bi, under normal liquid metal conditions, separation of core and valence electrons is valuable both for thermodynamics and in interpreting diffraction experiments. Mg is considered in some detail as a specific example where there is weak electron–ion interaction. Finally, dynamical structure is considered. After a brief summary relating back to the electron–electron pair correlation contribution in X-ray scattering, attention is next focussed on the (longitudinal) viscosity of alkali metals via the Kubo formula. This viscosity is shown to be dominated by ion–ion interactions. Nevertheless, an intimate relation at the melting point is exposed between shear viscosity, thermal conductivity, and electrical resistivity, the latter two transport coefficients being dominated by electrons.

AbstractIn large regions of densities and temperatures the properties of plasmas are influenced by Coulombic forces. Here especially hydrogen and helium plasmas are studied. The region of nonideality is given and the main effects as screening, quantum corrections, level shifts and the cut off for the sum over states are discussed. Based on methods of classical and quantum statistics corrections to the ideal EOS are calculated. Interpolational expressions covering the whole density-temperature plane are given and phase transitions to highly ionized states are discussed. Level shifts due to nonideality are derived. Finally the ionization equilibrium and kinetics are considered theoretically focussing the attention on nonideality effects.
