Abstract

In determining the impedance of a cylindrical dipole in intimate contact with a plasma, the effect of the induced acoustic sources (force and fluid flux distributions) on the antenna surface must be accounted for in addition to the effects of the induced current distribution. This is accomplished by the derivation of a suitable stationary formula for impedance which accounts for the effects of all the induced sources. In this variational formulation it is only necessary to know the functional form of the induced sources and not their relative magnitudes in order to obtain impedance values. In general, the effect of the acoustic sources on impedance was found to be quite small for the current and force distribution used.
