Abstract
Within the approximations of spherical lattice cell, central-field, and relativistic Fermi statistics, an algorithm with average atom model is presented to calculate the electronic energy levels and equation of state for hot and dense matter at arbitrary densities and temperatures. Choosing Zink's analytical potential as initial potential, we have solved the Dirac-Slater equation which satisfies the Weigner-Seitz boundary condition. The electronic energy bands are not taken into account. Taking energy level degeneracy as a continuous function of density, we have considered the pressure ionization effects for highly dense matter. Results for13Al atom are shown.
