From the above formulas we can get the dielectric tensor for cold plasma.
If w>>wci, w>>wpi, we can neglect ion component.
Assuming neutral plasma that is J0=0 and neglecting the volume magnetic moment we have M=0.
The dielectric tensor describes the properties of the plasma in the magnetic field.

1.The following results are in the condition of θB=0 that is surface
normal parallel to magnetic field.
2.Dellogtau=0.01, dellogfre=0.1, number of direction in hemisphere
is 25.
3.The magnetic filed=1012 Gauss, Teff=106 K, g*=1e14 cm/s2.
4.Only the radiation damping term was adopted in opacities.

Further works…..
1. First, there are still some problem about the modes in index of refraction.
2. There are some gap where wave could not propagate. We should use
a reasonable way to deal with it.
3. Add other damping terms( radiation damping, Doppler damping, collision damping).
4. Introduce the opacities which include higher harmonic components.
Later powerpoints are prepared for questions………………
Why do we need two boundary conditions?

Figure 5: Fit of the phase-integrated data. The model (double blackbody plus line components) is described in the text. From top to bottom, the panels show data from the pn, the MOS1 and the MOS2 cameras. In each panel the data are compared to the model folded through the instrumental response (upper plot); the lower plot shows the residuals in units of sigma.
Figure 6: Residuals in units of sigma obtained by comparing the data with the best fit thermal continuum model. The presence of four absorption features at ~0.7 keV,~1.4 keV, ~2.1 keV and ~2.8 keV in the pn spectrum is evident. The three main features are also independently detected by the MOS1 and MOS2 cameras.
From pn: 0.68/0.24 : 1.36/0.18
Four absorption features have central energies colse to the ratio 1:2:3:4
