Extract

An approximate dispersion relation is obtained for quasi-longitudinal whistler mode propagation in the hot anisotropic plasma. The influence of plasma temperature and anisotropy on whistler energy focusing along the magnetic field and whistler trapping in the magnetospheric ducts are considered for the case when the whistler wave normal angle is not equal to zero.
