Collective excitations and universal broadening of cyclotron absorption in Dirac semimetals in a quantizing magnetic field

The spectrum of electromagnetic collective excitations in Dirac semimetals placed in a quantizing magnetic field is considered. We have found the Landau damping regions using the energy and momentum conservation law for allowed transitions between one-particle states of electron excitations. Analysis of dispersion equations for longitudinal and transverse waves near the window boundaries in the Landau damping regions reveals different types of collective excitations. We also indicate the features of universal broadening of cyclotron absorption for a magnetic field variation in systems with linear dispersion of the electron spectrum. The use of the obtained spectrum also allows us to predict a number of oscillation and resonance effects in the field of magneto-optical phenomena.
