Experiences investigating the dynamic structure factor of dense plasmas are applied to complex plasmas, in particular to dusty plasmas and dimensionally reduced plasmas. Using generalized linear response theory, the dynamical structure factor is obtained from a density response function expressed in terms of equilibrium correlation function. Corrections beyond the RPA approximation are taken into account by evaluating local‐field corrections within the recurrance method. Results for the dynamic structure factor of a Yukawa plasma is compared with molecular dynamics calculations. (© 2005 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
