Larmor frequency

subject fact

Larmor frequency has definition The frequency of precession of a charged particle orbiting in a uniform magnetic field. It is equal to eH / 4πm_e, where e is the electron charge, m_e is the electron mass, and H is the magnetic field strength. has source: Hopkins, J. 1976 Glossary of Astronomy and Astrophysics, University of Chicago Press, 2001-09-27 09:33:15.0
