Abstract
Laser-matter interaction is a many body problem. In the classical realm already the three body problem is not solvable analytically. On the other hand understanding physics evolves along the analytic path. So, what is the solution to the dilemma? There is a twofold approach: development of collective concepts and models that are able to describe macroscopic aspects of matter, for example the many body phenomenon, to be summarized under the general concept of screening, with Debye screening as a special example.
