This article is the result of a research on the propagation of electromagnetic waves in a plasma found confined in a cylindrical metal structure through an intense axial magnetic field. The eigenvalue problem resulting from this study is numerically solved and frequencies of the first electromagnetic modes are obtained. Results of this work could be applied to characterize plasmas at the laboratory.

Keywords : Plasma Physics; electromagnetic waves; eigenvalue problems.
