High-frequency Surface Waves in a Current Carrying Hot Plasma Column
نویسنده
چکیده
The propagation of high-frequency axially-symmetric surface waves along a current-carrying hot plasma column in a glass tube is investigated by means of a kinetic plasma model. The wave spectrum and the wave damping rate are obtained. Our results agree with the experimental data for surface wave propagation in a gas-discharge plasma at low pressures. It is found that the wave damping is mainly due to the Landau mechanism.

متن کاملRadiation Characteristics of a Plasma Column Antenna
By means of the study on electromagnetic (EM) waves propagating along the plasma column, it is found that the radiation of a plasma column is caused by two kinds of operation modes. The first one is a guided mode which leads to a surface current radiation, and its operation condition is obtained by boundary conditions and physical properties of plasma. The second one is a leaky mode which resul...
