Scientific paper

The energy loss rate of fast protons in a strongly magnetized electron
gas has been calculated using the Fokker-Planck equation to describe the
dominant effect of small-angle Coulomb scattering. Stopping lengths of
order 1 gm/sq cm are obtained for 30 MeV protons and the possibility of
maser action at the gyrofrequency is indicated.
