摘要: In the kinetic theory of plasmas, particles are described by distribution functions whose evolution is determined equations. The spectrum fluctuations in plasma includes distributions weakly damped waves. equation for may be averaged over these to find equations, sometimes called quasilinear These equations describe slow waves, which or grow, and particles, diffuse momentum space. this lecture course, a general derivation given first two lectures, used treat resonant scattering related processes next three lectures. last four lectures concerned with radiation various astrophysical sources. Radiation also treated using outlined
