Special focus lies on the impact of the damping parameter onto the dispersion. It is quantitatively exemplified for the two-dimensional case, for both, the charge (`sheet'-)plasmon and the spin-density plasmon. The predicted deviations fall within the resolution limits of advanced techniques.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-08-11T12:14:48.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "phenomenological plasmon broadening", "dispersion", "special focus lies", "electron liquid", "two-dimensional case" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 6, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
