Description

A numerical study is presented of the dispersion relation of linearly polarized strong electromagnetic waves in a cold electron plasma. The nonlinear effects introduced by the relativistic motion of electrons are: 1) the dispersion relation depends explicitly on the field strength α=eE0/mcω0, and 2) the propagation of modes with frequencies below the formal electron plasma frequency is allowed.
