Kinetic Theory for Electronic Transport Properties of Warm Dense Matter: Chapman-Enskog Solution of the Uehling-Uhlenbeck Equation
Lucas J. Babati, Nathaniel R. Shaffer, Louis Jose +1
A kinetic theory is developed to describe the electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and electrothermal coefficients in warm dense plasmas. It models electron degeneracy us…
Plasma Conductivity from Warm Dense Matter to the Spitzer Limit Using Mean-Force Kinetic Theory
Lucas J. Babati, Nathaniel R. Shaffer, Louis Jose +1
A theoretical model is developed to compute electronic transport coefficients extending from warm and dense to hot and dilute plasma conditions. This kinetic theory-based approach…
Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Temperature Relaxation in Non-Neutral Plasmas Relevant to Antimatter Experiments
James C. Welch, Louis Jose, Timothy D. Tharp +1
An important process for antimatter experiments is the cooling of particles in a Penning-Malmberg trap to experimentally useful temperatures. A non-neutral plasma of one species (e…
Temperature Relaxation Rates in Strongly Magnetized Plasmas
Louis Jose, James C. Welch, Timothy D. Tharp +1
Strongly magnetized plasmas, characterized by having a gyrofrequency larger than the plasma frequency (), are known to exhibit novel transport properties. Prev…
