Abstract
The transverse magnetoresistance of quasi 10 conductors is shown to have a new effect of the title not originating in the orbital quantization like the Shubnikov-de Haas effect. The model band energy is a symplified version of Gor'kov-Leded's model. The eigen energy and wave function in the transverse magnetic field are obtained in the normal state and also in a SDW state. By a variational method the magnetoresistance is calculated for typical processes including the electron-phonon and Umklapp Coulomb scatterings in the normal and SDW states. The matrix elements for these processes are oscillatory due to interference of the incoming and outgoing electron waves modified by the field. The small-period oscillation observed in the magnetoresistance of the Bechgaard salts is ascribed to this new mechanism working with the electron-phonon interaction in the SDW state.
