POLARIMETRIC PARAMETERS OF SCATTERED ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVES IN THE CONDUCTIVE MAGNETIZED PLASMA

Interaction of Electromagnetic Waves With a Magnetized Nonuniform Plasma Slab

The absorption, reflection, and transmission of electromagnetic waves by a nonuniform plasma slab immersed in an ambient uniform magnetic field of various strengths are studied in this paper. The effects of the plasma parameters and magnetic field strength on the absorbed, reflected, and transmitted power are discussed. The magnetized nonuniform plasma slab is modeled by a series of magnetized ...

Angle-of-arrival of Radio Waves Scattered by Turbulent Collisional Magnetized Plasma Layer

The features of angle-of-arrival (AOA) of scattered radiation using the geometrical optics approximation and statistical simulation (Monte Carlo method) are studied in the paper. Analytical expressions are derived for the power law spectrum of electron density fluctuations and numerically calculated at different angles of inclination of geomagnetic field with respect to the layer boundary, at d...

Thermal effects on the propagation of large-amplitude electromagnetic waves in magnetized relativistic electron-positron plasma.

The propagation of circularly polarized electromagnetic waves along a constant background magnetic field in an electron-positron plasma is calculated by means of both a fluid and a kinetic theory treatment. In the fluid theory, relativistic effects are included in the particle motion, the wave field, and in the thermal motion by means of a function f, which depends only on the plasma temperatur...

Spontaneous thermal waves in a magnetized plasma.

Coherent temperature oscillations corresponding to thermal (diffusion) waves are observed to be spontaneously excited in a narrow temperature filament embedded in a large, but colder, magnetized plasma. The parallel and transverse propagation properties of the waves satisfy the predictions of the classical transport theory based on Coulomb collisions. The frequency of the oscillations meets the...
