Název v původním jazyce

Radiation-driven diffusive transport of fast electrons in solar flares

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Fast electron scattering on plasma ions due to stimulated Bremsstrahlung is investigated and modeled. Comparison with Coulomb scattering suggests that stimulated Bremsstrahlung scattering can be dominant in low-density, radiation-driven plasmas, provided that the radiation spectrum has a sufficiently high brightness temperature in the neighborhood of the plasma frequency. While stimulated Bremsstrahlung scattering cannot be easily observed in laboratory plasmas due to their small size, it should operate in large-scale astrophysical plasmas, such as those met in the flaring solar corona. The effect of the solar microwave radiation on fast-electron scattering is evaluated through a parameterized flaring corona model. We find that stimulated Bremsstrahlung greatly enhances the fast-electron scattering frequency in the flare magnetic loop, leading the transport of deka-keV electrons to occur in the diffusion regime, characterized by significant precipitation rates. This prediction is consistent with the interpretation of the above-loop-top hard x-ray and microwave emissions from the X3.1 flare of August 24, 2002. Our analysis indicates that stimulated Bremsstrahlung may play an essential role in the dynamics of fast electrons trapped in solar flare loops
