Abstract
Thermodynamic properties of strongly coupled classical ions in the polarizing background of degenerate electrons are analyzed by numerical experiments. The effect of finite electron temperature is taken into account. The internal energy, the pressure, the pair-correlation function, and the structure factor of ions are obtained, and the effects of electronic screening on these quantities are clarified.Keywords
