Abstract

The scattering of slow electrons from the hydrogen atom embedded in non-ideal classical plasma has been investigated by using the effective range theory. A pseudopotential, which has been derived from a solution of Bogolyubov's hierarchy equations, is used to represent the interactions among the charged particles in plasma. A detailed study is made on the effects of non-ideality of plasma on the scattering dynamics for a wide range of the non-ideality parameter. In particular, the zero-energy resonance phenomenon has been studied in detail by evaluating the singlet scattering length. It is found that the scattering length suffers significant changes when the non-ideality parameter approaches its critical value.
