Description
Summary:The internal and free energies of liquid metallic helium are calculated for wide ranges of density and temperature, and the corresponding equation of state is obtained in the framework of perturbation theory. The electron-ion interaction potential is selected as a small parameter, and the calculations are carried out to the third order of smallness inclusive. Conduction electrons are considered in the random phase approximation with regard for the exchange interaction and correlations in the local field approximation. The hard-sphere model is used for the nuclear subsystem, the sphere diameter being the only parameter of the theory. The sphere diameter and the system density, at which helium transforms from the single- into double-ionized state are evaluated by analyzing the effective pair interaction between helium nuclei also in the third order of perturbation theory. The case of double-ionized helium atoms is considered. The third-order correction turns out substantial in all examined cases. The values obtained for thermodynamic parameters such as the density, temperature, and pressure fall within the ranges typical of the central regions of giant planets, which allows us to suppose the existence of metallic helium in the solar system.
