Abstract

Abstract The 2D model of the field line random walk (FLRW) is developed by considering a space-dependent mean magnetic field with perpendicular and parallel gradients, and a component in the perpendicular plane The impact of the configuration of the mean field on FLRW is explored. We have found that both the diffusion (random walk) and the convection (ordered walk) are significantly modified. The diffusion is strongly influenced by the parallel gradient and by , while the perpendicular gradient generates a flow of the field lines along its direction. A synergistic effect between the three elements of the configuration of the mean field is found.
