Extract

An expression is derived for the ponderomotive force acting in a cold collisionless magnetized plasma in a high-frequency electromagnetic field. Some related topics, such as the magnetic moment and solenoidal currents induced by the HF field are considered. A microscopic approach is used. The results are in complete agreement with the general expression for the ponderomotive force in a liquid medium with frequency dispersion obtained earlier by Washimi & Karpman by means of phenomenological considerations.
