Electron cyclotron resonance plasma heating in the CERA-RX facility under a randomly pulsating electric field

The results of the numerical simulation of the electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) heating of plasma particles in the CERA-RX facility under a randomly pulsating electric field (the collective effects taken into account) are presented. Under these conditions, the electron energy spectrum was found to be depleted to the low energy region due to an increase in the number of particles in the high energy region. The obtained effect depends on the polarity of the pulsating electric field.
