Description

A theory of electrostatic surface waves on a quantum plasma half-space is developed with the inclusion of external magnetic field effects for the geometry in which the magnetic field is parallel to the surface and the direction of propagation is perpendicular to the magnetic field. A general analytical expression for dispersion relation of surface waves is obtained by solving Poisson and quantum magnetohydrodynamic equations with appropriate quantum boundary conditions.
