abstract
In the present paper we calculate the dielectric functions of an ultra-relativistic plasma, such as an electron-positron or a quark-gluon plasma. We use classical transport theory and take into account collisions within the relaxation time approximation. From these dielectric functions we derive the dispersion relations of longitudinal and transverse plasma waves.

Energy Loss of a Heavy Quark in a Collisional Quark-Gluon Plasma
Including thermal parton collisions via the BGK kernel increases the collisional energy loss of a heavy quark in QGP by ~8% at large velocities for α_s=0.3 compared to the collisionless limit.
