Kruer W. I. The Physics of Laser Plasma Interactions. <...> Raman scattering of the laser radiation in magnetized plasma V. B. Krasovitskiy Keldysh Institute of Applied Mathematics, Russian Academy of Sciences, 4 Miusskaya sq., Moscow, 125047, Russia E-mail: krasovit@mail.ru V. A. Turikov Russian University of People’s Friendship, 6 Mikluho-Maklay str., Moscow, 117198, Russia E-mail: vturikov@yandex.ru The numerical simulation of Raman scattering for the laser radiation propagating across the external magnetic field is made. <...> It is shown that at the linear stage of Raman instability the magnetic field reduces the forward scattering increment and increases the backward scattering increment. <...> The stochastic heating of electrons in the backward scattering region is enhanced with increasing the magnetic field. <...> PACS: 52.38.Bv Keywords: laser radiation, Raman scattering, underdense plasma, stochastic heating of electrons. <...>
