Abstract
The spiralling of charged particles in an intense magnetic field is taken into account in the description of their collisions involving small fractional momentum transfer. The transition probability to the continuum of possible states is given. In addition, the transition probability is given for a particle's orbit center to be displaced from one magnetic line of force to another, with accompanying momentum change, as a result of scattering by a fixed charge. The equivalent results are derived for the scattering of two identical particles in their relative coordinate system.
