Kinetic theory and fast wind observations of the electron strahl

Abstract We develop a model for the strahl population in the solar wind – a narrow, low-density and high-energy electron beam centred on the magnetic field direction. Our model is based on the solution of the electron drift-kinetic equation at heliospheric distances where the plasma density, tempera...
