Time-Dependent Perpendicular Transport of Energetic Particles for Different Turbulence Configurations and Parallel Transport Models

Abstract
Recently a new theory for the transport of energetic particles across a mean magnetic field was presented. Compared to other non-linear theories the new approach has the advantage that it provides a full time-dependent description of the transport. Furthermore, a diffusion approximation is no longer part of that theory. It is the purpose of the current paper to combine this new approach with a time-dependent model for parallel transport and different turbulence configurations in order to explore the parameter regimes for which we get ballistic transport, compound sub-diffusion, and normal Markovian diffusion.
