How is the Diamagnetic Effect (DME) Relevant to Stellar Surface Phenomena?
The structure of stellar atmospheres can be modified if they include embedded diverging magnetic fields. This is due to the presence of speed filters. Here we examine some of the relevant effects through the numerical simulation of the motion of charged particles. We introduce the concept of "floating" particles and point out the relevance of the diamagnetic effet (DME) to the evolution of Maxwellian velocity distributions into Non-Maxwellian.
