Electromagnetic wave propagation in plasma

Transverse electromagnetic waves propagate in plasmas if their frequency is greater than the plasma frequency. For a given angular frequency, CO, there is a critical density, above which waves do not penetrate a plasma. The propagation of electromagnetic waves in plasmas has many uses, especially as a probe of plasma conditions. [Pg.108]

Electromagnetic wave propagation in plasma is described by the conventional wave equations ... [Pg.153]

At high frequencies co Ven), the absorption coefficient is proportional to the square of wavelength (/u., a co a therefore, short electromagnetic waves propagate in plasma more readily. [Pg.154]
