Abstract
We consider wave propagation in a cold and isotropic relativistic plasma, in the presence of a moving density perturbation, which can be created by a particle bunch or by an intense laser pulse. We derive the space and time reflection coefficients and discuss the associated frequency shifts. This work could be useful for the development of radiation sources and new diagnostic techniques for laser and plasma acceleration experiments.
