Abstract

In the presence of crossed electric and magnetic fields, charged particles in a plasma experience a drift in the direction. Their transport in the direction parallel to the electric field is hindered by their gyration around magnetic field lines, giving rise to classical collision-driven transport, proportional to . It is shown, however, that the fluid plasma description ignores a potentially large contribution to the cross-field mobility resulting from energy-position correlation of magnetized particles along their gyro-orbits.
