Unlike conventional harmonics of the cyclotron resonance, which are periodic with \\omega, this correction is periodic with \\omega^{3/2}. Oscillations in \\delta\\sigma^{int}(\\omega) develop at low magnetic fields, \\omega_c\\ll\\omega, when the conventional harmonics are suppressed by the disorder. Their origin is a {\\em double} backscattering of an electron from the impurity-induced Friedel oscillations.
