Abstract

It is shown that, in addition to the classical (D⊥ ∼ B−2), plateau (D⊥ ∼ B0), and Bohm (D⊥ ∼ B−1) diffusions, there is a new region of diffusion between the classical and the plateau regions where the diffusion increases with increasing the magnetic field. In this region, the lifetime of the convective cells is determined by the ion collisional viscosity and, therefore, this region is important for a plasma with large ion mass.
