The first order effect of Coulomb forces between the charged particles of a plasma is the well-known Debye-H\"uckel-term. It is a negative contribution to the pressure and energy of the gas, that at high densities will overwhelm the ideal…

This paper is concerned with the analysis of a mathematical model arising in plasma physics, more specifically in fusion research. It directly follows \cite{DHK1}, where the tri-dimensional analysis of a Vlasov-Poisson equation with finite…
A model for the collisional stopping of ions on free electrons in warm dense matter is developed and explored. It is based on plasma kinetic theory, but with modifications to address the warm dense matter regime. Specifically, it uses the…
The recently developed "internal" Density Functional Theory provides an existence theorem for a local potential that contains the center-of-mass correlations effects. The knowledge of the corresponding energy functional would provide a much…
