Heat Flux in a Non-Maxwellian Solar Coronal Plasma
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 27 September 2017
Abstract
We determine the electron distribution function within a hot coronal loop using a hybrid numerical scheme which couples the Spitzer-Härm method at low velocities with the solution to the high velocity form of the Landau-Fokker-Planck equation. From this we calculate the heat flux throughout the loop and compare it with the classical fourier law of Spitzer and Härm(1953).
