The Mean Spherical Approximation (MSA) is a commonly-used thermodynamic theory for computing the energetics of ions in the primitive model (i.e., charged hard-sphere ions in a background dielectric). For the excess chemical potential,…
For quantum effects to be significant in plasmas it is often assumed that the temperature over density ratio must be small. In this paper we challenge this assumption by considering the contribution to the dynamics from the electron spin…
Stable fluid and solid particle phases are essential to the simulation of continuum fluids and solids using Smooth Particle Applied Mechanics. We show that density-dependent potentials, such as Phi=(1/2)Sum (rho-rho_0)^2, along with their…
We study a partially ionized hydrogen plasma by means of quantum molecular dynamics, which is based on wave packets. We introduce a new model which distinguishes between free and bound electrons. The free electrons are modelled as Gaussian…

Assuming triviality of the 4-dimensional $\lambda \phi ^4$-theory we compute the effective potential by means of a self consistent Feynman-Bogoliubov method. This potential $U_{eff}^{FB}$ depends on a UV-cutoff, which is fixed by a…

We use effective field theory and thermal field theory to study the dynamical screening effect in the QED plasma on the $\alpha$-$\alpha$ scattering at the $^8$Be resonance. Dynamical screening leads to an imaginary part of the potential…
We study in this paper the properties of a gas of fermions interacting {\em via} a scalar potential $v(q)=4\pi{e}^2/q^2$ for $q<\Lambda<<k_F$ at dimensions larger than one, where $\Lambda$ is a high momentum cutoff and $k_F$ is the fermi…
We address the outstanding problem of electron pairing in the presence of strong Coulomb repulsion at small to moderate values of the Coulomb parameter, $r_s \lesssim 2$, and demonstrate that the pseudopotential framework is fundamentally…
