We consider a partially ionized gas at thermal equilibrium, in the Saha regime. The system is described in terms of a quantum plasma of nuclei and electrons. In this framework, the Coulomb interaction is the source of a large variety of…

Solvent can occupy up to ~70% of macromolecular crystals and hence having models that predict solvent distributions in periodic systems could improve in the interpretation of crystallographic data. Yet there are few implicit solvent models…
