We present numerical results for electron‐phonon and electron‐electron scattering in optically excited electron plasmas in bulk semiconductors. Our results are based on the full two‐time Green's function approach. They include quantum mechanical memory and correlation effects because the scattering integrals are generalizations of the conventional Boltzmann scattering integrals. The interplay of two different scattering mechanisms is studied and compared to results where only one scattering mechanism is present.
