Cold Waveguide Electrostatic Modes between Upper Hybrid and Plasma Resonance,
Abstract
The structure of electrostatic oscillations is determined for a cold plasma with a zero order density gradient along the magnetic field. A set of well-behaved structures, bounded at plasma resonance, exists for discrete values of perpendicular wavenumber. Under these conditions the plasma acts as a waveguide. A Green's function suitable for sources located in the overdense region of the plasma is constructed from these waveguide-like solutions. (Author)
