In this paper the authors have discussed the confinement of plasma by a one-dimensional stationary electromagnetic wave. Their analysis is similar to that carried out by former workers for a TM0.1 mode but they have examined the assumptions limiting the applicability of present theories in detail. One of the conditions for the applicability of the present theory is that the frequency of the electromagnetic wave should be of the same order or greater than the plasma frequency at the nodes where particle density is maximum. This condition makes the present theories nonapplicable in cases of thermonuclear interest.
