Reflection of plasma waves from a plane boundary

We state and analytically solve the linearized problem of the reflection of plasma waves from the half-space boundary in gas plasma for the first time. We consider mirror and diffusion boundary conditions and find the reflection coefficient as a function of the original problem parameters. We analyze the long-wave limit. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 150, No. 3, pp. 498–510, March, 2007.
