“…In principle one makes use of the specular reflection and the boundary conditions at the interface in order to solve the Vlasov equation which together with the Poisson equation leads to the dispersion relation. Since the methodology can be looked up in SITENKO and PAVLENKO (1978), only the result need be given. Therefore the nonlinear dispersion relation, as calculated is given by where k, is the wave vector coplanar with the boundary, so is the dielectric constant of the medium on the left hand side of the boundary,…”

“…As a result surface echo oscillations are excited (PAVLENKO and REPYAKH, 1975;SITENKO et al, 1976;SAUER et al, 1976;LAZZARO et al, 1980). The explosive plasma instabilities (STURROCK, 1966;STENFLO et al, 1971;FUKAI et al, 1969;DUM and SUDAN, 1969) which have been known to exist in the bulk plasmas are also excited on the plasma surface as shown by SITENKO and PAVLENKO (1978). They investigated the low frequency interaction between two positive and one negative energy waves at the plasma dielectric interface for a plasma having a compensated beam of ions with beam velocity much less than the electron thermal velocity.…”

High frequency three-wave nonlinear 'explosive' interaction of the surface modes of a semi-infinite beam-plasma system under no external field is investigated. The conditions that favour nonlinear instability, keep the plasma linearly stable. The beam runs parallel to the surface. If at least one of the three wave vectors of the surface modes is parallel to the beam, explosive interaction at the surface takes place after it has happened in the plasma bulk, provided the bulk waves propagate almost perpendicular to the surface and are of short wavelength. On the other hand if the bulk modes have long wavelength and propagate almost parallel to the surface, the surface modes can 'explode' first.

“…Plasma echoes in an infinite plasma have long been known theoretically [1] [2] as well as experimentally [3]. Spatial echoes were theoretically investigated in a static situation where the non-propagating electric field is directed perpendicular to the interface of a semi-bounded plasma [4] [5]. If the perpendicular direction is designated as the x direction, the electric field E as well as the distribution function f is spatially onedimensional:…”

Plasma echo theory is revisited to apply it to a semi-bounded plasma. Spatial echoes associated with plasma surface wave propagating in a semi-bounded plasma are investigated by calculating the second order electric field produced by external charges and satisfying the boundary conditions at the interface. The boundary conditions are twofold: the specular reflection condition and the electric boundary condition. The echo spots are determined in terms of the perpendicular coordinate to the interface and the parallel coordinate along which the wave propagates. This improves the earlier works in which only the perpendicular coordinate is determined. In contrast with the echo in an infinite medium, echoes in a bounded plasma can occur at various spots. The diversity of echo occurrence spots is due to the discontinuity of the electric field at the interface that satisfies the specular reflection boundary condition. Physically, the diversity appears to be owing to the reflections of the waves from the interface.
