Abstract
The chaotic radial transport of energetic electrons trapped in a magnetic dipole field has been observed in a laboratory terrella. This transport is driven by multimode, drift-resonant plasma instabilities which are excited by the hot electron population. A transport simulation of energetic electrons interacting with a spectrum of electrostatic waves modeled on the measured fluctuations reproduces temporal features of the experimentally observed radial particle flux.
