(F. F. Chen ~ 1.3) On a log-log plot of \(n\) [\(m^{-3}\)] vs kTe (eV) draw lines of constant \(\lambda_D\) and \(\Delta\). On the graph place the following points:

a) Tokamak (\(T_{e}\) \(\simeq\) 1 keV, \( n_e\simeq10^{13} \, cm^{-3} \))

b)Solar wind near the Earth ( \( T_e \simeq 10 eV, n_e\simeq10 \, cm^{-3} )\ )

Answer

(a) \(x \) particles and (b) \(3\) particles
