Three-body collisions in a plasma in a strong laser field

Electron-ion collision operator in strong electromagnetic fields

“…Here we consider transparent plasmas ω 2 ω 2 p = 4πe 2 n/m, which allows us [12] to use results of electronion collisions in rare plasma [1,7]. Indeed, the following relations are fulfilled in a transparent plasma:…”

“…where ν = v osc n i b 2 osc /2π. Unfortunately, we could not perform integration (12) in the explicit form. The result of the numerical integration of ( 12) is presented in fig.…”

“…However, it is not correct for the kinetic peculiarities of the collisions. One should use collision operator (2) with core (11) or (12), if plasma kinetics were to be described accurately.…”
