  Experimental results on the absolute magneto-transmission of a series of high
density, high mobility GaAs quantum wells are compared with the predictions of
a recent magnetoplasmon theory for values of the filling factor above 2. We
show that the magnetoplasmon picture can explain the non-linear features
observed in the magnetic field evolution of the cyclotron resonance energies
and of the absorption oscillator strength. This provides experimental evidence
that inter Landau level excitations probed by infrared spectroscopy need to be
considered as many body excitations in terms of magnetoplasmons: this is
especially true when interpreting the oscillator strengths of the cyclotron
transitions.
