OBLIQUE WAVE PROPAGATION IN DRIFTING ISOTROPIC HOT PLASMA.

Abstract

The electro-magneto-plasma-gas-dynamics (EMPGD) equations are summarized for hot, compressible electron gas, with no magneto-static field, drifting with a constant velocity. Using small signal theory for oblique plasma wave propagation, a determinantal equation for the refractive index is found and is applied for particular cases. (Author)
