Bk. Singh et al., AN EVALUATION OF PLASMON FREQUENCY-SHIFT OBSERVED IN METALS AT LONG-WAVELENGTH LIMIT (K-]O), Indian Journal of Pure & Applied Physics, 31(12), 1993, pp. 874-879
The observed negative frequency of w(pl) at k=0 for various simple met
als have been evaluated using the interacting electron-plasmon picture
for a system of electron gas by generalizing the Bohm-Pines method to
include non-RPA effects. In order to reproduce the experimental data
of the negative frequency shift at k=0, we have assumed that the plasm
on spectrum has been extended to a value beyond k(c)-RPA. Our calculat
ed values are in good agreement with that of the experimental result.
