Estimating Inner Magnetospheric Radial Diffusion Using a Hybrid-Vlasov Simulation
Radial diffusion coefficients quantify non-adiabatic transport of energetic particles by electromagnetic field fluctuations in planetary radiation belts. Theoretically, radial diffusion occurs for an ensemble of particles that experience irreversible violation of their third adiabatic invariant, whi...
