Abstract:

The volume emissivity formula for gyro-synchrontron radiation from an ensemble of electrons having a power-law energy distribution and an isotropic pitch-angle distribution is presented. Numerical calculations of the radiation spectrum were made for four electron kinetic energy ranges 10 keV - 100 keV, 100 keV - 1 MeV, 1 MeV - 10 MeV, and 10 keV - 10 MeV, and for four values of electron energy spectral index. The influence of electron energy distribution on the radiation spectrum is discussed. Author
