Extract

Certain unfamiliar terms in renormalized plasma turbulence theory are interpreted in terms of the familiar physics of the Balescu–Lenard collision operator. Specifically, it is argued that the so-called polarization parts of the operator which renormalizes the particle propagator are related to fluctuations of the Fokker–Planck coefficient which describes polarization drag, and to fluctuations of the effective dielectric function of the medium.
