Abstract

Expressions for the transverse electric conductivity and transverse permittivity of collisional quantum plasma for an arbitrary value of the degeneracy factor of the electron gas are derived using the Wigner-Vlasov-Boltzmann kinetic equation with the Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook collision integral. Different particular cases are analyzed. Special attention is paid to the case of completely degenerate quantum plasma. The results obtained are compared with Lindhard’s formula.
