Ionization potential depression and Pauli blocking in degenerate plasmas at extreme densities

Ionization potential depression and Pauli blocking in degenerate plasmas at extreme densities

New facilities explore warm dense matter (WDM) at conditions with extreme densities (exceeding ten times condensed matter densities) so that electrons are degenerate even at temperatures of $10--100$ eV. Whereas in the nondegenerate region correlation effects such as Debye screening are relevant for the ionization potential depression (IPD), new effects …
