Effect of the cluster integrals on three particles on the calculated electron density of a hydrogen plasmaThe effect of the calculation of the cluster integrals on three particles is analyzed and evaluated for a hydrogen plasma where a pairwise-additive hard sphere-Coulomb potential is assumed. The Mayer cluster integral method was used to calculate the Helmholtz free energy which was then applied to the calculation of the electron number density through an iterative technique using a corrected Saha equation. It is seen that the three particle integrals provide a substantial correction to the calculations in the low energy-high density region of the hydrogen plasma.
