We study the two-dimensional two-component Coulomb gas in the canonical ensemble and at inverse temperature $\beta>2$. In this regime, the partition function diverges and the interaction needs to be cut off at a length scale $\lambda\in…

This paper is the continuation of a previous one [L. {\v{S}}amaj and B. Jancovici, 2007 {\it J. Stat. Mech.} P02002]; for a nearly classical quantum fluid in a half-space bounded by a plain plane hard wall (no image forces), we had…
For the two-dimensional one-component Coulomb plasma, we derive an asymptotic expansion of the free energy up to order $N$, the number of particles of the gas, with an effective error bound $N^{1-\kappa}$ for some constant $\kappa > 0$.…
We derive the explicit analytical form for the charge-dipole and dipole-dipole interactions in 2D configuration space. We demonstrate that the reduction of dimensionality can alter the charge-dipole and dipole-dipole interactions in 2D…
