Homework
1.Using Hamilton & Petrosian (1992) expressions
for mean free path (l) and angular diffusion coefficient, calculate what
spectrum of whistler turbulence is needed to ensure l is equal to Larmour
radius.
2. What spectrum of whistler turbulence is
needed to ensure that the escape time (Eq. 10) does not depend on particle
energy: a) in non-relativistic case, b) in relativistic case.
