How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The influence of the collective and quantum effects on the Shannon information entropy for atomic states in dense nonideal plasma was investigated. The interaction potential, which takes into account the effect of quantum non-locality as well as electronic correlations, was used to solve the Schrödinger equation for the hydrogen atom. It is shown that taking into account ionic screening leads to an increase in entropy, while taking into account only electronic screening does not lead to significant changes.
