Description:
Electron acceleration by wave turbulence in a magnetized plasma Electron acceleration by wave turbulence in a magnetized plasma, Published online: 12 March 2018; doi:10.1038/s41567-018-0059-2 Electrons can be accelerated by astrophysical shocks if they are sufficiently fast to start with. As laboratory laser-produced shock experiments reveal, this can be achieved by lower-hybrid waves generated by a shock-reflected ion instability.
