Hybrid resonance of Maxwell's equations in slab geometry    [PDF]

Bruno Després, Lise-Marie Imbert-Gérard, Ricardo Weder
Hybrid resonance is a physical mechanism for the heating of a magnetic plasma. In our context hybrid resonance is a solution of the time harmonic Maxwell's equations with smooth coefficients, where the dielectric tensor is a non diagonal hermitian matrix. The main part of this work is dedicated to the construction and analysis of a mathematical solution of the hybrid resonance with the limit absorption principle. We prove that the limit solution is singular: it is constituted of a Dirac mass at the origin plus a principle value and a smooth square integrable function. The formula obtained for the plasma heating is directly related to the singularity.
