Abstract

Summary form only given, as follows. The interaction of a light wave with a relativistic ionization front in the presence of an applied DC magnetic field which is perpendicular or parallel to the incident wave has been investigated. In both cases, four transmitted modes are generated in the magnetized plasma by an incident linearly polarized wave. The frequency upshifts of the various modes have been calculated and compared to the unmagnetized case. The corresponding reflection and transmission coefficients have also been obtained. Finally, the density ripple associated with the free streaming mode in a magnetized plasma for the perpendicular case has been considered.
