Abstract :
The constitutive relations for small-signal electromagnetic fields propagated in a cylindrical electron plasma rotating around its axis are derived with the use of the electron-theoretical approach. A rotating electron plasma is found to be equivalent to a moving dispersive dielectric with an appropriate dielectric constant, as far as small-signal electromagnetic fields are concerned.
