Partition Functions and Mass Action Constants of Plasmas of Light Elements at Higher Temperatures
Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We first analyze the relations between the work of Planck and Klimontovich and show that Klimontovich's kinetic theory of non‐ideal plasmas confirms Planck's partition function for the hydrogen plasma. We discuss and check the Planck‐Brillouin‐Larkin (PBL) expressions for Hydrogen with PIMC calculations and derive new partition functions and ...

Distributed Ledgers for Spectrum Authorization
IEEE Internet Computing, 2020 The rising demand for wireless services can only be met if the available spectrum is shared effectively, and spectrum underutilization is avoided. This article examines how a DLT-based spectrum authorization system may be designed considering its protocol, data, and network operational layers. Decentralization, automation, and verifiable trust achieved
