Cosmic Rays in Interplanetary SpaceThe science problem I have tackled in this grant is the derivation of the diffusion tensor of energetic particles in turbulent magnetic fields, with a sensible mean field. The new approach was to use quasi-linear theory with a consistent treatment of those scattering terms leading to diffusion perpendicular to the mean magnetic field; and, to use modern data and formats for three-dimensional turbulence.
