The time dependent electron velocity distribution in a fully ionized gas under the action of electric and magnetic field

  • Published:
Czechoslovak Journal of Physics B Aims and scope

Abstract

The Boltzmann's equation in crossed electric and magnetic fields is solved provided that the electron-electron collisions are neglected. The velocity distribution fucntion is obtained in the analytic form; the runaway rate is calculated in dependence on the magnetic field and time.
