Abstract
We formulate a microscopic theory for the longitudinal Josephson plasma oscillations in intrinsic Josephson-junction systems. In addition to the usual second order tunneling process the electrostatic interaction is incorporated in our formulation, which generates a charge density mode propagating in the direction perpendicular to the superconducting layers. We discuss the effect of impurity scattering on the Josephson plasma frequency.
