The plasma-solid transition:some implications in astrophysics

arXiv:astro-ph/0206009

Abstract

Using a criterion proposed by Salpeter,and standard solid state physics,we have determined the Debye temperature of a solid in equilibrium with the electron gas surrounding it.The results obtained can have implications in studies of the interstellar medium.
