Scientific paper

It is noted that an inverse-power-law relativistic-electron spectrum may be produced in a plasma turbulence reactor and that the closeness of the spectral index to the mean value of 2.7 obtained from statistical analysis of radio-source spectra is of basic astrophysical interest. Plasma turbulence reactors in a weak magnetic field are analyzed for different types of anisotropic turbulence (Langmuir waves and whistlers). The electron spectrum is found to have a universal nature, regardless of the presence of a magnetic field, and a value of 3 is obtained for the spectral index. Some factors which might change the form of the electron spectrum are pointed out.
