Fast particles diffusing along magnetic field lines in a turbulent plasma can
diffuse through and then return to the same eddy many times before the eddy is
randomized in the turbulent flow. This leads to an enhancement of particle
acceleration by large-scale compressible turbulence relative to previous
estimates in which isotropic particle diffusion is assumed.
