Distance from the neutral point (r) for each particle at each saved timestep, considering only collisional energy loss (top) and with pitch angle scattering included (bottom). The electric field has magnitude 0.001 in our dimensionless units, which is 3.9 V/m for electrons. This simulation was done for a sample of 100 electrons, and their positions were recorded every 100 timesteps.
