The exact theory of linear cyclotron instabilities applied to hydromagnetic emissions in the magnetosphere

The complex dispersion relation which describes transverse plasma waves propagating in a cold gyrotropic ambient plasma parallel to the background magnetic field as they interact with charged particle streams is derived by solving the linearized collisionless Boltzmann equation simultaneously with M...
