Abstract
We re-investigate some classical approaches for collisional absorption of laser radiation in dense plasmas and compare them to quantum theories. The typical break-down of the classical approaches can be avoided by using the quantum dielectric function in the seminal Dawson and Oberman formula which is equivalent to recently published quantum theories of collisional absorption. Strong electron–ion scattering can however be included more easily in classical approaches.
