17. When (Formula presented) we calculate that (Formula presented) while (Formula presented) for (Formula presented)
18. Note that the dephasing resulting from the inhomogeneous broadening [as could be observed, e.g., in time-resolved reflectivity experiments] (Ref. 3) would result in a shorter decay time than observed experimentally here: for (Formula presented) we should find (Formula presented) corresponding to (Formula presented) (2.3 meV).
