“…Equations (12) are the central result of this approach as they lead to important physical consequences. What is implied in the two sets of equations (12) and (13) can be understood by comparing (12b) with (3a), and (13b) with (4). From this, we realize that ignoring the renormalization factor is the equivalent of assuming the duration r,, of the memory function Qel(t) to be much shorter than the time scale of the "ballistic" correlation YF,,(t) [lo], and, therefore, consider the system behavior only at times r, << t << r,.…”
