Degenerate plasma in a half-space under an external electric field

摘要

An analytic solution is found for the problem on the behavior of a collisional plasma in a variable external electric field. We elucidate the structure of the screened electric field and investigate the case where the frequency of the external field is close to the plasma oscillation frequency (resonance). We show that there are two near-surface layers where the behavior of the screened held differs essentially.
