Abstract
Plasma phase transitions in dense hydrogen and electron–hole plasmas are investigated by direct path integral Monte Carlo methods. The phase boundary of the electron–hole liquid in germanium is calculated and is found to agree reasonably well with the known experimental results. Analogous behaviour is found for high-density hydrogen. For a temperature of T = 10 000 K it is shown that the internal energy is lowered due to droplet formation for densities between 1023 cm−3 and 1024 cm−3.
