Having read Preyer's preprint, I now conclude he is modelling an RC
discharge but has chosen an RC decay time of several nanoseconds and
propagation time (d/c) and decay time (pho*epsilon) of the order of
picoseconds. His simulations go only to about 150 picoseconds and so
never approach a static equilibrium - a well defined, "slowly" decaying
current is still flowing - the "intermediate state" which you correctly
inferred (exponential decay).
