Kinetic energy corrections for the free electrons in a high-frequency, fully-ionized plasma

Extract

It is found that, for a fully-ionized, homogeneous plasma in a high-frequency electric field, the fundamental term 1 in the kinetic-energy correction is defined by the intensity and frequency of the electric field and by the collision frequency v1. We obtain the Debye–Hükel energy correction in 2, too, as did Theimer & Wright, but this term is much smaller than 1, and its coefficient is no longer a constant.
