A uniform, unbounded, cold plasma stream, with relativistic velocity (0,U, 0), traverses a vacuum half-spacey> 0 and a dielectric half-spacey< 0. A plane electromagnetic wave in the plasma stream iny> 0 is incident obliquely on the face of the dielectric. The criterion for determining which characteristic waves are present in each half space is discussed, and it is shown that, for the polarization in which B is parallel toy= 0, there is one reflected wave and three transmitted waves. One of the latter can be an amplifying wave. A first approximation to the transmission and reflexion coefficients is found in the case when the density of the stream is low.

A plane electromagnetic wave incident on the interface of a dielectric medium made of a piezoactive material leads to the excitation of elastic shear waves. Piezoelectric material is assumed to have 6mm class hexagonal symmetry. The case of a half-space and a finite layer is considered. Coefficients of reflection and refraction are determined. In the problem of an electromagnetic wave incidence on a half-space made of a piezoelectric material of hexagonal symmetry, class 6 mm, the nature of the piezoelectric effect influence on the transparency condition is established. In the case of reflection from a finite piezolayer, reflection coefficients are determined for different variants of boundary conditions.

The problem of a monochromatic plane electromagnetic wave incident from vacuum on the plane boundary of a plasma half-space is considered. The method of solution is based on the representation of the disturbance in the plasma half- space as that generated by some current source in the complementary half-space into which, for the purpose of the representation, the plasma is conceived to extend. The specular reflexion boundary conditions and the diffuse scattering boundary conditions are treated in turn, first for normal incidence and then for oblique incidence.
