23. For an alternative derivation with more detail in the case of electron-ion plasmas, see D. Tamme and K. Henneberger, Contrib. Plasma Phys. 37, 265 (1997). A similar approximation has been used in the derivation that gives rise to the equations that have been numerically solved in Ref. 11 in the case of dense three-dimensional electron-hole plasmas.
