On ion-cyclotron-resonance heating of the corona and solar wind
This paper concisely summarizes and critically reviews recent work by the authors on models of the heating of the solar corona by resonance of ions with high-frequency waves (up to the proton cyclotron frequency). The quasi-linear theory of pitch angle diffusion is presented in connection with r...
