Abstract
In a homogeneous collisionless magnetoplasma let us examine the storage and flow of energy that occurs when a circularly polarized characteristic wave of angular frequency co propagates along the imposed magnetic field. The propagation constant k is given in terms of the refractive index n by (Equation 2.50) k = nω/c
