Inhaltsangabe:
- In the present paper, the correction due to the thermal interaction of two charges to the recombination and ionization processes for the hydrogen atom is considered. The evaluation is based on a rigorous quantum electrodynamic (QED) approach within the framework of perturbation theory. The lowest-order radiative correction to the recombination/ionization cross-section is examined for a wide range of temperatures corresponding to laboratory and astrophysical conditions. The found thermal contribution is discussed both for specific states and for the total recombination and ionization coefficients.
