Phys. Rev. Lett. 101, 035002 (2008) [4 pages]Quantum Corrections and Bound-State Effects in the Energy Relaxation of Hot Dense HydrogenReceived 12 May 2008; published 16 July 2008 Simple analytic formulas for energy relaxation (ER) in electron-ion systems, with quantum corrections, ion dynamics, and RPA-type screening are presented. ER in the presence of bound electrons is examined in view of recent simulations for ER in hydrogen in the range 1020–1024 electrons/cc. © 2008 The American Physical Society URL:
