Prediction of a roton-type feature in warm dense hydrogen (2304.10807v1)

Published 21 Apr 2023 in physics.plasm-ph

Abstract: In a recent Letter [T. Dornheim \textit{et al.}, Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{121}, 255001 (2018)], it was predicted on the basis of \textit{ab initio} quantum Monte Carlo simulations that, in a uniform electron gas, the peak $\omega_0$ of the dynamic structure factor $S(q,\omega)$ exhibits an unusual non-monotonic wave number dependence, where $d\omega_0/dq < 0$, at intermediate $q$, under strong coupling conditions. This effect was subsequently explained by the pair alignment of electrons %at an intermediate range of wave numbers [T. Dornheim \textit{et al.}, Comm. Phys. \textbf{5}, 304 (2022)]. Here we predict that this non-monotonic dispersion resembling the roton-type behavior known from superfluids should be observable in a dense, partially ionized hydrogen plasma. Based on a combination of path integral Monte Carlo simulations and linear response results for the density response function, we present the approximate range of densities, temperatures and wave numbers and make predictions for possible experimental observations.
