Abstract:
Dispersion relation is obtained for a nonlinear unpolarized surface wave propagating along a boundary between vacuum and a magnetoactive plasma in a geometry when a dc-magnetic field is parallel to both the boundary and the propagation of the surface wave. A general approach used is based on the knowledge of the corresponding first integral of Maxwell's equations.
