Lower Hybrid Resonance

AbstractAccessibility of a plane electromagnetic wave into an inhomogeneous, magnetized plasma column is studied using the complete cold plasma dielectric tensor. It is found that TM (transverse magnetic) waves incident at small angles with the vacuum-plasma interface are almost completely transmitted into the plasma even though the criterion for accessibility to the lower-hybrid resonance is not satisfied. The significance of this result for coupling rf energy into plasma filled waveguides is discussed.
