Anisotropy in broad component of H\(\alpha\) line in the magnetospheric device RT-1

Temperature anisotropy in broad component of H\(\alpha\) line was found in the ring trap 1 (RT-1) device by Doppler spectroscopy. Since hot hydrogen neutrals emitting a broad component are mainly produced by charge exchange between neutrals and protons, the anisotropy in the broad component is the e...

Summary:Temperature anisotropy in broad component of H\(\alpha\) line was found in the ring trap 1 (RT-1) device by Doppler spectroscopy. Since hot hydrogen neutrals emitting a broad component are mainly produced by charge exchange between neutrals and protons, the anisotropy in the broad component is the evidence of proton temperature anisotropy generated by betatron acceleration.
