PROPAGATION OF WAVES IN PLASMA ACROSS THE MAGNETIC FIELD (RASPROSTRANENIE VOLN V PLAZME POPEREK MAGNITNOGO POLYA)

Abstract

The propagation of waves in a plasma across a magnetic field is being characterized by interesting features near gyro-frequencies of electrons and ions, as well as frequencies multiple to them. Frequencies of ordinary and extraordinary waves which propagate across a magnetic field in a non- relativistic plasma are determined, and the excitation of high frequency branches of these oscillations are investigated when an ion cyclotron wave passes through the plasma. Various dispersion equations for extraordinary waves are given. The behavioral frequency of various branches of extraordinary waves in hot plasma are described.
