Normalised energy distribution of 10 million electrons before and after the first test particle simulation. The initial positions were sampled from the electron density of the MHD snapshot in Fig. 1. The initial velocities were sampled from a Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution at their initial temperature. The non-thermal electrons are too rare to be in the sample of this initial ensemble.
