Abstract

The thermal effects on the frequency spectra and damping decrements of the waves propagating in a plasma of two nonisothermal different types of degenerate and nondegenerate charge carriers are investigated. This is done by obtaining the Fourier transform of the transverse dielectric tensor elements of an unbounded collisionless warm degenerate plasma. It is shown that in a warm degenerate plasma, static Debye screening of the very slow low-frequency longitudinal waves is changed. Furthermore, it is shown that the skin effect of the transverse electromagnetic waves is related to the Landau damping.
