On the Conductivity of a Magnetoactive Turbulent Plasma
Otto G. Chkhetiani
Abstract
The problem of determining the effective conductivity tensor of a magnetoactive turbulent plasma is considered in the approximation of isolated particles. Additional gyrotropicterms are shown to appear in the conductivity tensor in the presence of mean, nonzero magnetic helicity. The dispersion of propagating electro- magnetic waves changes, additional modes and additional rotation of the polarization plane appear, and the waves can be amplified. The properties acquired by plasma with helicity are similar those observed in chiral and bianisotropic electrodynamic media.
