Abstract
The Bethe Age diffusion solution for high‐energy electrons in the presence of a magnetic field is derived. The electron transport in the presence of a magnetic field can generally be separated into diffusion along and perpendicular to the field direction. This result is similar to diffusion of a plasma in a magnetic field. However, unlike plasma diffusion, the energy of the fast electrons is retained as the independent variable.Keywords
