“…Since the magnetic moment
and the total energy H e ( v 2 , z ) = m e v 2 /2 − eϕ ( z ) are the independent integrals of the electron motion, the general solution of the stationary Vlasov equation in the guiding center approximation has the form of an arbitrary function of these two integrals
. In the 1D anisotropic model (Mingalev et al.,
2021; Whipple et al.,
1991), the electron distribution function was chosen in the bi‐Maxwellian form:
where C −1 = ∫d 3 v f Me ( v , ∞ ) is the normalization constant;
