Abstract
The influence of the size effect on the frequencies of the surface plasmons (SP) in thin films, cylinders, and spherical voids is studied within the random phase approximation. The cross sections for excitation of SP by fast electrons and X‐rays and the photoabsorption cross sections are calculated.Keywords
