Internal
Energy: total energy of the
|
|
|
electrons
|
|
|
• |
Assume
equipartition: equal energy in
|
|
|
electrons
and magnetic field
|
|
|
• |
Minimum
electron energy density U is then
|
|
equal
to 9.3x10-2B2 (in erg cm-3), B in G.
|
|
|
• |
Estimates
suggest B is usually on order of
|
|
|
several
micro-Gauss
