Abstract

The Thomas-Fermi-Dirac-Weizsacker statistical model of atoms is applied to a compressed diatomic molecule in a dense plasma. As a two-dimensional problem, we analyze numerically a spatial profile of the screening function and the electron density inside a closed boundary surface. We also calculate the Helmholtz's excess free energy as a function of the internuclear distance, to examine a possibility of the binding state.
