The Strong Enhancement of Electron-Impact Ionization Processes in Dense Plasma by Transient Spatial Localization

Recent experiments have observed much higher electron–ion collisional ionization cross sections and rates in dense plasmas than predicted by the current standard atomic collision theory, including the plasma screening effect. We suggest that the use of (distorted) plane waves for incident and scatte...
