Abstract

The scattering of H-polarised plane waves by an infinitely long axially magnetised cylinder of uniform plasma is investigated for the case in which the radius of the cylinder is small in comparison with the wavelength of the incident wave. The scattering amplitude is found to be a maximum at two frequencies, which are shown to be related to the familiar dipolar resonant frequency of an isotropic plasma column. Approximate expressions for the two resonant frequencies are derived.
