Abstract :
The scattering of H-polarized plane waves by an infinitely long axially magnetized hollow cylinder of uniform plasma is investigated for the case in which the radius of the plasma column is small in comparison with the wavelength of the incident wave. The total scattering cross section is found to have maxima at two resonant frequencies. The peaks of these resonances are examined in detail, as well as the dependence of their sharpness on the various physical parameters.
