PLASMA OSCILLATIONS

Specialty Definition: PLASMA OSCILLATIONS

DomainDefinition

Nuclear Energy & Physics

Longitudinal waves appearing in a plasma on account of a perturbation of electric neutrality. In the case of a cold unmagnetized plasma, and also for large wave-lengths, the frequency of these waves is, by definition, equal to the plasma frequency. Source: European Union. (references)

Physics

Class of electrostatic oscillations which occur at/near the plasma frequency (see entry) and involve oscillations in the plasma charge densities. These modes are also known as Langmuir oscillations or Langmuir waves; in Stix's _Waves in Plasmas_ they are more properly called Langmuir-Tonks Plasma Oscillations. (references)
