Abstract

The dispersion relation for a collisionless moving electron plasma, when the direction of motion is along the magnetic field, and that of the wave propagation normal to the magnetic field, is analysed. It is shown that in small magnetic fields the ordinary wave develops a new band of backward waves below the plasma frequency. When the frequency of the wave is higher than the plasma frequency, the effect of the motion of the plasma is identical to a deviation of the direction of propagation.
