Issues on the Electron Stopping Power Modulated by Magnetic and Electric Fields

Peculiar Hot Electron Effects in Crossed Electric and Magnetic Fields

Hot carrier effects expected (in some cases observed) in crossed electric (both static and microwave) and magnetic (not quantum) fields are surveyed. The case that the carrieroptical phonon interaction is strong compared with the other scattering processes is of main concern. In static electric fields, the principal effect is the carrier accumulation in a special region of the momentum space wh...

Conventional Transmission Electron Microscope Observation of Electric and Magnetic Fields

Electron dynamics in parallel electric and magnetic fields

We examine the spatial distribution of electrons generated by a fixed energy point source in uniform, parallel electric and magnetic fields. This problem is simple enough to permit analytic quantum and semiclassical solution, and it harbors a rich set of features which find their interpretation in the unusual and interesting properties of the classical motion of the electrons: For instance, the...

Electric and Magnetic Fields

California Electric and Magnetic Fields Program A Project of the California Department of Health Services and the Public Health Institute INTRODUCTION Our daily use of electricity is taken for granted, yet scientific and public concern has arisen about possible health effects from electric and magnetic fields (EMF) that are created by the use of electricity. Because of this concern, the Califor...

Assessing human exposure to power-frequency electric and magnetic fields.

This paper reviews published literature and current problems relating to the assessment of occupational and residential human exposures to power-frequency electric and magnetic fields. Available occupational exposure data suggest that the class of job titles known as electrical workers may be an effective surrogate for time-weighted-average (TWA) magnetic-field (but not electric-field) exposure...
