FREQUENCY DISPLACEMENT DURING DIFFUSION OF LIGHT IN RELATIVISTIC PLASMA,

Abstract

The diffusion of light by isotropic plasma with Maxwellian distribution function is discussed. It is shown, that when relativism is taken into consideration, the maximum of diffused light is displaced into the zone of higher frequencies. In case of a sharp relativism, the relative frequency displacement, corresponding to the maximum of scattered radiation, is of the order of 1/(1-Beta sub T). The results obtained may be of interest to diagnose high temperature plasma. (Author)
