Dipole polarizabilities of plasma-embedded Ps− and H− ions

We have investigated the effect of weakly coupled hot plasmas on the dipole polarizabilities of positronium negative ion and hydrogen negative ion. The plasma effect is taken care of by employing a screened Coulomb (Yukawa) potential of Debye type, and highly correlated exponential wave functions are used. Dipole polarizabilities for various screening parameters are reported.
