Derived Parameter: Electron Magnetization

Electron Magnetization

The magnetization of electrons, ie the ratio of cyclotron frequency to collision frequency.

$M_e=\frac{\omega _{ce}}{\nu_e}$

Electron magnetization values for the quiet Sun (Model 1001; blue), faculae (1005; red), and sunspot umbra (1006; green).

Model 1001 Values (quiet Sun region)

Model 1005 Values (strong facular region)
