Fast electrons moving along a magnetic field line in the solaratmosphere undergo collisions with the particles of the backgroundplasma. In doing so, they deposit some of their energy into thebackground plasma, increasing its temperature. In addition to thistemperature increase, the plasma also undergoes radiative and conductivecooling, which alters the temperature distribution along the field line.Using stochastic simulations, we can model the movement of fastelectrons along a field line and calculate changes in their energy asthey undergo collisions. We use this data to map the temperaturedistribution along the field line, including radiative and condutivecooling, for injected electron beams of various initial distributionsand injection parameters. Temperature maps, and the radiation maps that arise from them, can be compared with observations from RHESSI and other satellites.
