Nonrelativistic quantum theory of stimulated Cherenkov radiation and Compton scattering in a plasma

Description

The role of quantum effects in the theory of Langmuir waves in a collisionless plasma is shown to be important for flows of quantum particles resonantly interacting with plasma oscillations and for plasma electromagnetic waves undergoing resonant scattering. (methodological notes)
