New Ion-Electron Resonances in Bounded, Hot, Magnetized Plasmas

Abstract

The present investigation of a hot ($T_e \mathrm{and} T_i\ne 0$) magnetized plasma cylinder shows that ${\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}}_0$ can introduce novel features in the ion thermal resonances. Furthermore, two new and strong main resonances are obtained which occur in the ion domain and are essentially due to a proper combination of $T_e$ and $B_0$. These resonances of a bounded plasma are only indirectly connected to the lower and upper hybrid resonances of an infinite plasma.
