Modeling the transport and anisotropy of energetic electrons in solar flares by Xiangliang Kong, Xiangliang Kong, Xiangliang Kong, Hao Ning, Yao Chen, Yao Chen

“…We find that both the fractions of electrons trapped in the looptop and precipitating into the solar surface display a non-monotonic behavior with increasing scattering rate. In the moderate diffusion regime, the precipitation fraction is highest and we expect intense nonthermal HXR and microwave emissions at the footpoints. …”
