Abstract The experiment on the formation of sloshing electrons by electron cyclotron resonance heating in a magnetic mirror is described, and the physical properties of them are investigated. The results show that (1) the sloshing electron configuration is formed, and its characteristics are very different from those of the hot electron ring; (2) Rn, the hot electron density ratio which represents the sloshing electron configuration, decreases as the mirror magnetic field increases, and the maximum of Rn can reach about 2.65.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
