An algorithm to solve the linear mode conversion problem in a weakly inhomogeneous plasma. (English) Zbl 0568.76120

Phys. Fluids 28, 145-154 (1985).
The method developed earlier by the first author and J. P. M. Schmitt [ibid. 26, 2200-2209 (1983; Zbl 0529.76116)] is extended to include both propagating and nonpropagating waves so that a complete set of solutions is obtained, permitting the construction of the Green function and the inclusion of localized sources or sinks.
