On the conical refraction of hydromagnetic waves in plasma with anisotropic thermal pressure
Abstract
A phenomenon analogous to the conical refraction widely known in the crystalooptics and crystaloacoustics is discovered for the magnetohydrodynamical waves in the collisionless plasma with anisotropic thermal pressure. Angle of the conical refraction is calculated for the medium under study which is predicted to be 1826. Possible experimental corroborating of the discovered phenomenon is discussed.
