Abstract

The influence of the anomalous Doppler effect on the resonant interaction of fast electrons injected into the magnetic trap of the flare loop is studied. Its relative role in the processes of the pitch-angle scattering of electrons and the dynamics of whistler turbulence is considered in comparison with the role of the normal Doppler effect at different angles of the wave vector with respect to the magnetic field in the loop. It is shown that the resonant interaction based on the anomalous Doppler effect is an insignificant factor in comparison with the interaction based on the normal Doppler effect and can be disregarded in model calculations of the kinetics of nonthermal electrons in solar flare loops.
