Data confidence 70 medium
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

Abstract Transport properties of the ionic component of dense plasmas are investigated on the basis of effective potentials taking into account the presence of an external alternating electrical (laser) field. The latter generates single‐particle oscillations of electrons and significantly changes the screening of the test charge in plasma. Therefore, transport coefficients become non‐monotonic function of the oscillation frequency. The results for the diffusion and viscosity coefficients are presented. These transport coefficients are computed using the generalized Coulomb logarithm within the Chapman‐Enskog model for the fluid description. It was revealed that the oscillation of the electrons in the alternating external field with the frequency (with ωp being plasma frequency) results in the significant reduction of the ionic diffusion and viscosity coefficients. In contrast, at , the ionic diffusion and viscosity coefficients are larger compared to the case without the external field impact.
