Abstract
A procedure is proposed for finding a solution to the linearized kinetic equation with the Landau collision integral included for charged particles in a plasma with a high degree of ionization. This procedure is used to obtain an expression for dielectric permittivity tensor for a collisional plasma over the entire range of frequencies and wave numbers as well as the collisionality parameter. This is transformed to the known expressions in the corresponding asymptotic strongly collisional and collisionless limits. Nonlocal linear transport equations for small perturbations are also formulated for arbitrary relations between the characteristic space, time and collision scales of the plasma
