The effect of weakly coupled plasmas on photodetachment cross sections of the hydrogen negative ion is investigated by using the asymptotic from of the bound state wave function and a plane wave form for the final-state wave function. The Debye model is used to represent the plasma effects. The required normalization constant is determined from highly accurate, completely nonadiabatic wave functions for the three-particle systems. Photodetachment cross sections for the plasma-embedded H{sup -} ion are calculated for different Debye lengths (D) ranging from infinite (pure Coulomb) to D=1.0.
