Abstract

Conduction coefficients were calculated connecting the electric and heat currents with the electric field and the temperature gradient, which are both assumed at right angles to the magnetic field. The coefficients are represented in a complex fashion, the real part giving a flow in the direction and the imaginary part giving a flow at right angles to the driving force. The calculation was carried through for the nuclear charges one, two, and three and for the limit of very large nuclear charges.
