Abstract

Experimental investigations of the nonadiabatic leakage of charged particles from a magnetic mirror have been conducted. The observations reveal the existence of multiple lifetimes for particles with similar energy and pitch angle. The variations of the time scales as a function of the particle density and radial position are investigated.
