Abstract :
The RF impedance characteristics of a plane capacitor, which is immersed in a warm isotropic plasma, are investigated with a kinetic theory. An analytical solution is derived by assuming that the plasma has a resonance velocity distribution function which approximates a Maxwellian one. It is found that the results agree fairly well with those obtained numerically from the Maxwellian velocity distribution function.
