Abstract
A general formalism is presented for the High Frequency and the Low Frequency parts of the electric microfield in three component plasmas (one electronic — temperature Te, two ionic — temperature Ti). This formalism is presented in a general form allowing extensive applications from weakly to strongly correlated plasmas, the physical effects being introduced explicitly by means of a two-body correlation function. Results are presented for the two parts of the electric microfield and particular attention has been paid to effects encountered in plasmas of inertial-confined-fusion produced by laser (correlation, proportion, temperature, charge). These effects show that the Low Frequency part of the electric microfield is very sensitive to the plasma parameter A
