Some General Aspects of Geomagnetically Trapped Radiation

  • Conference paper
Radiation Trapped in the Earth’s Magnetic Field

Part of the book series: Astrophysics and Space Science Library ((ASSL,volume 5))

Abstract

This paper provides a sketch of the physical principles of radiation belts and an abridged summary of the present State of knowledge of the geomagnetically trapped radiation. As such, it is intended as an introduction to detailed papers on specific topics which constitute the remainder of the Bergen conference.
