    A Is there a vibration energy term associated with mesons?

    Hello, I am learning about solutions of the Schrodinger equation including the term of rotational energy (i.e. L^2 /2I, in its quantized form) and I was wondering if there should be another quantum term describing vibrational states of hadrons or any other composite subatomic particle, in...

    A Understanding Ohm and Hall Diffusion in Cosmic Rays

    Summary: I know that the diffusion of charged particles in a magnetic field is described as a diffusion tensor with 3 components: Diff parallel to the field, perpendicular and anti-symmetric diffusion. Is this last one that I do not understand. Dear community, I am PhD candidate in...

    A Vlasov-Fokker-Plank(VFP) equation from Boltzmann equation

    The paper in which I have seen that is: A. R. Bell, Cosmic ray acceleration (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0927650512001272) And what I have called "modified" Boltzmann equation is the equation 1 of the paper.

    A Vlasov-Fokker-Plank(VFP) equation from Boltzmann equation

    Dear community, I am studying some equations related to the acceleration of cosmic rays(CRs) in magnetized plasma and I have seen a couple the equations I am not able to understand. First, I see that it is used as time-dependent Boltzmann equation for the CRs ∂ƒ/∂t + (vx + u)∂ƒ/∂x -...

    A Notes on Cosmic rays - wave interactions in plasmas

    Thank you for the fast answer. To be concrete, what I would like to find is a more detailed derivation of eq. 4 of Cosmic ray acceleration...

    A Notes on Cosmic rays - wave interactions in plasmas

    Dear community, I am Pedro de la Torre, now doing my PhD on Cosmic ray propagation. Now, I have started to study reacceleration due to interactions of CR with plasma waves. My problem is that I do not find neither a good book or any kind of review with a detailed demonstration on the...
