title: Resistivity saturation in warm dense matter.
abstract: Electrical resistivity is shown to saturate in solid-density aluminum in the warm dense matter regime. Calculations are done using the average-atom model SCAALP and the finite-temperature Ziman-Evans formula for electrical resistivity. The mean free path is estimated using the Drude law. This mean free path is shown to present a minimum of the order of the interatomic spacing.
