Zn equation (1)~~which neglect , the
~z[t~k ?ub?oript '1' and the "-" sign at the root refer
to an extraordinary wave, while the subscript '2' and the
+" sign are related to an ordinary wave. In a general
case, equation (1) is too complicated for an investigation.
Theref?re, we make some simplifying assumptions. For one
thing, the collision frequency, ~ , is assumed small com-
pared with W , and the quantity Sin equation (1) neglig*ble
compared with unity. Secondly, we use what is known as the
nazi lon itudinal a ~~ 0 .
