Abstract :
A method for calculating microwave propagation through magnetoactive, low-pressure plasma under conditions of electron-cyclotron resonance (ECR) is presented. The influence of electron gas viscosity on the microwave propagation is investigated. The numerical calculations show the importance of the viscosity effects on microwave propagation through the high concentrated, magnetoactive plasma, especially for strong ECR interaction
