Аннотация:
A manifestly gauge invariant and covariant description of the response of a plasma to an electromagnetic disturbance is constructed and used to deduce how the dielectric tensor transforms under a Lorentz transformation. A method for deducing the properties of waves in an arbitrary frame and an arbitrary gauge is presented.
