摘 要: | On the basis of the theory of the grand-canonical ensemble, we have developed a grand-canonical approach in the 'chemical picture" for the equation of state. The approach defines atomic configuration probabilities and gives a conservation equation for the electron number for calculating the occupation numbers of atoms and molecules. The approach also incorporates the perturbations caused by plasma interactions in cool-dense gases into the equation of state formulation and gives the resulting nonidca) terms of thcrmodynamic properties. The resulting formulae have been applied to the study of the properties of cool-dense plasmas and standard solar models. The phase transitions of high temperature plasmas and the influences of pressure ionization effects through solar interior opacities on solar models have been investigated.
