文摘The interactions between relativistic electrons in a hot plasma are analysed theoretically. By splitting the electron density fluctuations into the individual part and the collective part, we are concerned with the collective oscillation of the relativistic electrons resulting from the Coulomb interactions. Consequently, we derive the frequency of the hot plasma and the "Debye length" with relativistic modification.
