Effect of Multiple Scattering on the Critical Electric Field for Runaway Electrons in the Atmosphere

Abstract

A simple method for taking into account the multiple Coulomb scattering in construction of a separatrix (the line separating the regions of runaway and decelerating electrons in an electric field) is described. The desired line is obtained by solving a simple transcendental equation.
