Abstract
Drift equations of motion are derived for a charged particle in the case of a strong electric field with allowance for relativistic effects of order v2/c2. The role of these effects is discussed along with the effects of a high-frequency field. The cases of weak and strong electric fields are distinguished [2] in the drift theory of the motion of charged particles in weakly inhomogeneous magnetic and electric fields. In the case of a weak electric field, the electric-drift velocity is vE ≪ v, where v is the characteristic velocity of the particle. For a strong electric field,vE∼v.
