Variation of magnetic moment \(\mu\) and three adiabatic invariants \(J_1\), \(J_2\) and \(J_3\) estimated from the simulation for electron (a, d, g, j), proton (b, e, h, k), and oxygen (c, f, i, l) having energy 5 MeV, \(L=6\), \(\alpha _{\text{eq}}=30^{\circ }\), \(\psi =90^{\circ }\). The mean value of adiabatic invariants \(\langle J\rangle\) and their standard deviation \(\sigma\) are mentioned in the respective panels to demonstrate their conservation
