The self-consistent determination of HF electroconductivity of strongly coupled plasmas

Abstract

Here is presented the calculation of the dynamic electrical conductivity of fully ionized, strongly coupled plasmas as a function of the external electric field frequency ω. The calculations are based on the formula for the energy-dependent collision frequency which is determined by means of the Green function theory methods, as a sum over the Matsubara frequencies. The domain of extremely high electron density: 10 21 ⩽ n e ⩽ 10 24 cm − 3 , and for the temperature varying from 10 kK to 1000 kK was examined. The real and imaginary parts of the conductivity for every electron density are presented in the generalized Drude-like form as a two-parameter function of the frequency ω in the region 0 < ω < 0.5 ω p , where ω p is the plasma frequency. A good agreement between the obtained results and the existing theoretical and computing simulation data is shown.
