Abstract

The Cherenkov emission of transverse-longitudinal waves in an anisotropic plasma is considered by applying a Hamiltonian method and by drawing an analogy between the equations for the Cherenkov emission of purely transverse and purely longitudinal waves in isotropic media and the equations for the emission of transverse-longitudinal electromagnetic waves in a highly anisotropic medium (a magnetized plasma). A formula for the emitted power is derived, as well as an expression for the directional pattern of the emitted waves in an anisotropic plasma.
