Av. Timofeev et Md. Tokman, QUASI-LINEAR EQUATION FOR ELECTRON-CYCLOTRON-RESONANCE INTERACTION WITH MONOCHROMATIC RADIATION IN MAGNETIC TRAPS, Plasma physics reports, 20(4), 1994, pp. 336-340
A consistent derivation of the quasi-linear equation describing electr
on cyclotron resonance (ECR) heating of a plasma in a magnetic trap of
arbitrary configuration under conditions of arbitrary spatial distrib
ution of microwave field is carried out. Several forms of quasi-linear
equation using different sets of dynamic variables are discussed.
