Longitudinal oscillations in plasma

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento (1955-1965)

Summary

By applying the method of the equation of motion to density fluctuations and using the random phase approximation, the dispersion relation for aN-component plasma is found. In the case ofN = 2 we obtain the dispersion relation derived by Nakajima. The application is also made to a three-component classical plasma and the corresponding frequencies are determined.

Riassunto

Applicando il metodo dell’equazione del moto alle fluttuazioni di densità e usando l’approssimazione di fase casuale, si trova la relazione di dispersione per un plasma adN componenti. Nel casoN = 2, si ottiene la relazione di dispersione dedotta da Nakajima. Se ne fa un’applicazione a un plasma classico a tre componenti e si determinano le corrispondenti frequenze.
