Collision damping of long-wavelength electrostatic oscillations in a high-temperature plasma is studied with the use of Guernsey's kinetic equation. A closed expression for gamma /sub C/(k), the collision damping decrement, is derived that is exact to first order in the plasma parameter, k/sub D//sup 3//n. (auth)
