Impact of Quantum Non-Locality and Electronic Non-Ideality on the Shannon Entropy for Atomic States in Dense Plasma.

The influence of the collective and quantum effects on the Shannon information entropy for atomic states in dense nonideal plasma was investigated. The interaction potential, which takes into account the effect of quantum non-locality as well as electronic correlations, was used to solve the Schrödinger equation for the hydrogen atom. It is shown that taking into account ionic screening leads to an increase in entropy, while taking into account only electronic screening does not lead to significant changes.
