- Abstract
- The quantum effects on the polarization bremsstrahlung emission due to the low-energy electron-atom collisions are investigated in partially ionized dense hydrogen plasmas. The impact parameter analysis is employed to describe the motion of the projectile electron in order to investigate the variation of the bremsstrahlung emission spectrum as a function of the impact parameter, de Broglie wave length, Debye length, and radiation photon energy. The results show that the quantum effects strongly suppress the polarization bremsstarhlung emission. It is also found that the polarization bremsstarhlung emission cross section shows the maximum value at the position of the Bohr radius. It is interesting to note that the quantum effects are found to be more important than the screening effects in the polarization bremsstarhlung emission. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All fights reserved.
