Abstract

The test charge problem for a semi-infinite plasma is formulated. Expressions for the far field potential are derived for stationary and slowly moving test charges. By applying the superposition principle for uncorrelated dressed test particles we calculate the dynamic form factor as well as the energy spectrum of the spontaneous radiation field.
