Pondermotive potential and Backward Raman Scattering in dense quantum plasmas
arXiv:1310.5018 · doi:10.1063/1.4865826
Abstract
The response of dense quantum plasmas in the backward Raman scattering is studied. The coefficients in the backward Raman scattering is found to be underestimated (overestimated) in the classical theory if the excited Langmuir wave has low-wave vector (high-wave vector). The second order quantum perturbation theory shows that the second harmonic of the pondermotive potential arises naturally even in a single particle motion contrary to the classical plasmas.
