Abstract
Plasma surface waves were discovered in 1958. The experiments done since then on these waves are critically reviewed and analysed in terms of appropriate models and corresponding dispersion relations. Discrepancies and unresolved issues are identified and discussed. Wave damping experiments and analysis, and results of more recent works on nonlinear aspects of these waves, are also reported.Keywords
