THE PROPAGATION OF ENERGETIC PARTICLES IN FINITE TEMPERATURE ASTROPHYSICAL PLASMAS.

Solutions to the dispersion relation for waves propagating parallel to the static magnetic field in a plasma of arbitrary β are obtained. (β is the ratio of thermal to magnetic pressure.) Resonant scattering by these waves is evaluated. It is found that the magnetostatic approximation, used extensiv...
