Selective Non-Resonant Acceleration of 3He++ and Heavy Ions by H+ Cyclotron Waves.

Abstract

The abundance anomalies associated with 3He-rich flares, are attributed to the intrinsically anomalous acceleration behavior of species with A/Q less than 3, in the presence of hydrogen cyclotron waves. While the overall model is along the lines of Fisk's (1978) proposal, the difficulties associated with triggering of nonhydrogenic cyclotron waves are avoided. (Author)
