Abstract
The transverse propagation of plasma waves in a magnetically active plasma near the harmonics of the electron gyrofrequency is considered for the condition that the wavelength is shorter than the gyroradius of an electron. Besides relativistic effects [14], collisions of electrons with other particles are taken into account. The derived dispersion equation is analyzed in the particular cases of weak and strong collisions, and likewise as a function of the resonant frequency detuning.
