Concentric circular lines show the trajectory... view more Credit: Ingo Michaelis and Yuri Shprits, GFZ New study found that electrons can reach ultra-relativistic energies for very special conditions in the magnetosphere when space is devoid of plasma. Recent measurements from NASA's Van Allen Probes spacecraft showed that electrons can reach ultra-relativistic energies flying at almost the speed of light. Hayley ...
