Suprathermal Electron Transport in the Solar Wind: Effects of Coulomb Collisions and Whistler Turbulence
The nature and radial evolution of solar wind electrons in the suprathermal energy range are studied. A wave–particle interaction tensor and a Fokker–Planck Coulomb collision operator are introduced into the kinetic transport equation describing electron collisions and resonant interactions with whi...
