Relaxation of non-isothermal hot dense plasma parameters

Abstract

The study applies effective interaction potential methods to analyze relaxation dynamics in non-isothermal hot dense plasmas. Metrics evaluated include temperature equilibration, coupling parameters, contributions to equation-of-state, and correlation energy. The electron–ion effective interaction potential is developed and validated through close agreement with results from finite-temperature Kohn–Sham DFT molecular dynamics and orbital-free MD simulations, as well as other theoretical models
