On the statistical mechanics of gravitational plasmas [PDF]

open access: possiblePhysica, 1966
Resume L'equation generale, non-markoffienne, d'evolution, etablie par l'un de nous (I.P.) et collaborateurs, est utilisee pour l'etude de la distribution des vitesses dans un systeme gravitationnel homogene. La divergence que donnent les methodes habituelles pour les grandes distances, n'apparait plus.

Statistical mechanics of relativistic plasmas

Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 1979
Abstract Based on the Klimontovich method of construction of a relativistic statistical mechanics the binary correlation function of a relativistic plasma is considered. Up to the order e4 for spatially homogeneous systems the relativistic binary correlation function can be expressed by the relativistic dielectric tensor, where higher-order ...

Statistical mechanics of a two-temperature, classical plasma

Physical Review A, 1986
Weakly coupled, nonequilibrium plasmas have often been described by assigning separate temperatures to the electron and ion velocity distributions. In this paper we present a model for the complete phase-space probability function which describes a two-temperature ensemble for arbitrary coupling. We discuss the ''thermodynamics'' predicted by the model,

Statistical mechanics of a spin-polarized plasma

Journal of Plasma Physics, 1988
The statistical mechanics of a spin-polarized plasma is investigated in detail. A rigorous quantum-mechanical description is constructed in terms of a generalized matrix Wigner function. In order to ensure the manifest gauge invariance of the theory, the non-canonical variables q (position) and π (mechanical momentum) are used for the particles.

Statistical mechanics of magneto-active plasma

Il Nuovo Cimento B Series 11, 1972
Wo have formulated the statistical mechanics of magnetoactive plasma in the framework of irreversible statistical mechanics. Starting from the formal solution of the complete Liouville equation, we have obtained the one-particle distribution function.

Statistical mechanics of a guiding centre plasma

Journal of Plasma Physics, 1977
The equilibrium configurations of a one-species guiding centre plasma are circularly symmetric. Unlike results obtained for systems with artificial periodicity, the profiles depend uniquely on the energy and mean square radius. The random phase approximation is shown to be invalid.

Statistical mechanics of Ar2+ in an inductively coupled plasma

Spectrochimica Acta Part B: Atomic Spectroscopy, 1996
Abstract In the mass spectrum of an argon inductively coupled plasma (ICP), there is a peak due to the presence of the argon dimer ion, Ar 2 + . Using elementary statistical mechanics, an attempt is made to elucidate the mechanism responsible for this ion's presence in the ICP, The assumption of local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) in the ICP leads

Statistical Mechanics of a Partially Ionized Hydrogen Plasma

Physical Review A, 1970
A generalized Saha equation for a partially ionized hydrogen plasma is derived and used for calculating the degree of ionization and the effective ionization potential for a wide range of electron densities and temperatures. The energy eigenvalues of the hydrogen atom in a plasma are obtained as solutions of the Schr\"odinger equation from a shielded ...
