Scientific paper

The acceleration of test particles near a static magnetic x line with a uniform electric field and a strong component of the magnetic field, B-parallel, parallel to the x line is studied. The energy spectrum of the accelerated particles is found analytically in the nonrelativistic limit, showing good agreement with numerical simulations. At high energies, the spectrum decays exponentially with a characteristic energy very different from that found in studies assuming B-parallel = 0.
