Ground state of a confined Yukawa plasma
arXiv:physics/0607203 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.74.056403
Abstract
The ground state of an externally confined one-component Yukawa plasma is derived analytically. In particular, the radial density profile is computed. The results agree very well with computer simulations on three-dimensional spherical Coulomb crystals. We conclude in presenting an exact equation for the density distribution for a confinement potential of arbitrary geometry.
