| Abstract | An approximate expression is derived for the dielectric function epsilon(k, omega). The theory includes inertial and non-Markovian effects and is free of adjustable parameters. For the k = 0 case, detailed comparisons are made with computer simulation results for dipolar soft-sphere and Stockmayer fluids, and the theory is shown to be qualitatively sound at both low and high frequencies. The present approximation should be very useful in developing a theory of solvation dynamics which properly includes important inertial effects. |
