Abstract
The spectral tensors of current fluctuations in the systems of uncorrelated particles and the linear response functions are derived on the basis of the transition-probability approach to the theory of nonequilibrium plasmas, semi-bounded or bounded in one direction. The typical cases of non-equilibrium systems are considered, including the presence of directed particle flows, external force fields and temperature anisotropy. Also discussed is the statement of the boundary value problem for the fluctuation fields in a plasma half-space and a plasma layer under the condition that the particles suffer specular reflection near the boundaries. The results obtained are assigned for building the correlation theory of electromagnetic processes in a bounded nonequilibrium plasma.
