Abstract
In this project, we study the thermodynamic and statistical properties of thermal plasma
using the laws of thermodynamics and statistical physics. We studied plasma as a fourth
state of matter. We find the equations of electric potential of a test particles by using
poisson equation. According to this criterion, the typical energy of interaction of charged
particles in a plasma or interaction energy at the average distance between charged particles
is small compared with the internal energy of particles. In addition to this, we study about
thermodynamic properties of plasma so the internal is small compered with the kinetic energy
of charged particles of an ideal plasma. Moreover, we studied the internal partition function
of atomic species is obtained as the sum over the quantum states of atoms.
