Title: THE REDUCED DISTRIBUTION FUNCTIONS FOR CHARGED PARTICLES WITH MANY-BODY INTERACTIONS
Authors: T.Kahlbaum (Institut f\"ur Plasma- und Lasertechnik, Technische Fachhochschule Wildau, Friedrich-Engels-Stra\ss{}e 63, Haus 8, D-15745 Wildau, Germany; E-mail: tkahlbau@igw.tfh-wildau.de)

We consider a multi-component system of charged particles that interact via a general many-body potential, and calculate the reduced distribution functions from the Bogoliubov-Born-Green-Kirkwood-Yvon hierarchy of equations in the form of a screened virial expansion through second order.

Key words: charged particles, distribution function, BBGKY hierarchy, virial expansion
