Possible self-resonant cyclotron acceleration of charges in an inhomogeneous plasma

A cyclotron resonance automatically adjusts itself as a charged particle moves through inhomogeneous crossed electric and magnetic fields and in the electric field of waves in a plasma. This self-adjustment results from the mutual cancellation of the changes in the Doppler frequency shift and the frequency of the cyclotron harmonic.
