while doing some calculations such as calculating the Bohr radius or velocity of an excitons in semiconductors such as GaAs I didnt understand why is it allowed to use the static permittivity even though the electron and hole aren't as heavy and the spectra is measured at high frequencies such as [tex]\omega=10^{15}Hz[/tex]?
