TRANSVERSE ELECTRIC CONDUCTIVITY OF QUANTUM COLLISIONAL PLASMAS
https://doi.org/10.18384/2224-0209-2012-1-624
Abstract
The article presents the formulae for calculation of transverse dielectric function
and transverse electric conductivity in quantum collisional plasmas under arbitrary degree of
degeneracy of the electron gas. To derive the formulae the Wigner Vlasov Boltzmann kinetic
equation with collision integral in BGK (Bhatnagar, Gross and Krook) form in coordinate
space has been used. The research of various particular cases has been done. The case
of fully degenerated quantum plasma has been studied separately. The article gives the
comparison with Lindhards formula.
