Notes: It is shown that quantum effects in dense gases and nonideal plasmas lead to nonexponential tails in the distribution function of electron momenta. This in turn is responsible for nonexponential temperature dependence of ionization and excitation rates in thermal equilibrium. These changes are predicted to be more pronounced than those due to lowering of the ionization potential. Consistent description of this phenomenon relies upon the evolution of the generalized electron distribution function, which depends both on energy and momentum. A kinetic equation for this function in a strong electric field is derived. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.
