  • Abstract
    The effects of the ground plane electron absorption coefficient on the admittance of a half-wavelength slot antenna radiating into a warm lossy plasma are examined for a range of plasma conditions and slot widths. The ground plane absorption coefficient is observed to have significant effects on the admittance of a thin slot when the plasma is greatly overdense, even when the plasma is only mildly warm ( T_{e} \\leq 1 eV ).
