Dense plasma opacity via the multiple-scattering method

Nathaniel R. Shaffer, Charles E. Starrett

The calculation of the optical properties of hot dense plasmas with a model that has self-consistent plasma physics is a grand challenge for high energy density science. Here we ex…

A Model of Electron Transport in Dense Plasmas Spanning Temperature Regimes

Nathaniel R. Shaffer, Charles E. Starrett

We present a new model of electron transport in warm and hot dense plasmas which combines the quantum Landau-Fokker-Planck equation with the concept of mean-force scattering. We ob…

Model for the electrical conductivity in dense plasma mixtures

C. E. Starrett, N. R. Shaffer, D. Saumon +4

A new model for the electrical conductivity of dense plasmas with a mixture of ion species, containing no adjustable parameters, is presented. The model takes the temperature, mass…

Tabular Electrical Conductivity for Aluminum

C. E. Starrett, R. Perriot, N. R. Shaffer +3

A new Sesame-type table for the electrical conductivity of aluminum is described. The table is based on density functional theory calculations and ranges from 0.001 to 1 times soli…

Correlations Between Conduction Electrons in Dense Plasmas

Nathaniel R. Shaffer, Charles E. Starrett

Most treatments of electron-electron correlations in dense plasmas either ignore them entirely (random phase approximation) or neglect the role of ions (jellium approximation). In…
