It is shown that the formula of Drummond and Rosenbluth for the angular dependence of the absorption coefficient of cyclotron radiation from a hot plasma is too crude, and hence the numerical estimates based on this formula for the total radiation from a plasma layer turn out to be less valid than the previous results obtained by the present author.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
