Electromagnetic wave scattering from a magnetized plasma column including a thin annular magnetized relativistic rotating electron beam (TAMRREB)

Scattering of electromagnetic waves from a magnetized plasma column at oblique incidence

“…16 In the case of the plasma column, when electromagnetic waves (in TE or TM mode) are incident on a magnetized plasma at normal angle, the scattered and transmitted waves are in two independent modes, namely, B and E-mode. 14,15 This is not true in the general case of oblique incidence. It is evident from Eqs.…”

“…2) follows the same trend cited in previous studies. 14,15 These plots generally include some main peaks at frequencies where backward scattering is maximized. Although, the number of peaks and their locations are different in various studies, the global behavior of backscattering cross section in each case follows the same formation.…”

“…The scattered fields can also be computed by application of Maxwell's equations and the corresponding boundary conditions. [13][14][15][16] Rusch and Yeh investigated the scattering of electromagnetic waves by an infinite cylinder coated with an inhomogeneous and anisotropic plasma sheath using Maxwell's equations. 13 They solved Maxwell's equations analytically and calculated the scattered power and backscattering cross section by the application of boundary conditions.…”
