Abstract
In this reply to the comment by Lallemand and Luo, we defend our assertion that the alternative approach for the solution of the dispersion relation for a generalized lattice Boltzmann dispersion equation [T. Reis and T. N. Phillips, Phys. Rev. E 77, 026702 (2008)] is mathematically transparent, elegant, and easily justified. Furthermore, the rigorous perturbation analysis used by Reis and Phillips does not require the reciprocals of the relaxation parameters to be small.
