Description for Nonlinear Cosmic Ray Diffusion Theories
Hardback. This book deals with the physics of cosmic ray diffusion theory, focusing on the physics of nonlinear transport of cosmic rays through turbulent interplanetary or interstellar plasma. The author proposes future research that could advance the field. Series: Astrophysics and Space Science Library. Num Pages: 212 pages, 49 black & white illustrations, 9 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PHM; PHP; PHVB; TTD. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 14. Weight in Grams: 482.
If charged particles move through the interplanetary or interstellar medium, they interact with a large-scale magnetic ?eld such as the magnetic ?eld of the Sun or the Galactic magnetic ?eld. As these background ?elds are usually nearly constant in time and space, they can be approximated by a homogeneous ?eld. If there are no additional ?elds, the particle trajectory is a perfect helix along which the par- cle moves at a constant speed. In reality, however, there are turbulent electric and magnetic?elds dueto the interstellaror solar wind plasma. These ?elds lead to sc- tering of the cosmic rays parallel and ... Read more
