Abstract
The dispersion relation of electromagnetic waves propagating perpendicular to an applied uniform magnetic field B~0~ in relativistic plasma is derived. Waves propagating perpendicular to the uniform applied magnetic field can be separated into two modes β one is the linearly polarized transverse wave and the other is a hybrid mode. In the present analysis, dispersion relation of the first mode i. e., for a pure transverse wave is analysed under the assumption that the wavelength is much longer than the cyclotron radii of the electrons. A stability criterion which limits the thermal energy of the electrons along B~0~ is obtained.

## Abstract The stability of highβfrequency potential surface waves at a dense magnetized plasma β metal interface with respect to a lowβfrequency plasma density modulation is studied in the point of view of the surface waves control. The discussion is addressed to the situation, when an external s
