Abstract
The correlation energy of a degenerate electron plasma in an extremely high magnetic field is calculated taking account of the dominant local principal plasmon mode's zero-point energy, as well as the statically shielded electron-electron interaction energy involving the quantum strong-field counterpart of the Debye-Thomas-Fermi static-shielding law. Other Plasmon-mode-resonance correlation-energy contributions are estimated in the quantum strong-field limit, and shown to be small for an extremely high magnetic field.
