Abstract

Approximate formulae exist for the two refractive indices and the two wave polarizations in a cold magnetoplasma, known as the QL (quasi-longtitidinal) and QT(quasi-transverse) approximations. Some of the commonly used forms of these formulae are wrong. The correct versions are given and the range of their validity is examined.
