| Résumé : | The linear theory of transport determines the 3 × 1 matrix of dissipative fluxes Ĵr namely, the electric current and the electronic and ionic heat fluxes, in terms of a 3 × 1 matrix of thermodynamic forces X̂ defined by the electric field and the gradient of the densities and temperatures. The components of the 3 × 3 matrix of tensors L̂rs of the linear flux-force relations Ĵr = Σ9s=1 L̂rsX̂ define the set of transport coefficients. They are evaluated for an ion-electron magnetized plasma in the framework of the statistical mechanics of charged particles starting from the Landau kinetic equation. |
