where dimensionless parameters β e = ω ce e and β i = ω ci i are called the
electron and ion magnetization , respectively. The components σ xx and σ xy
can be expressed in terms of the Pedersen σ xx ( ω

It is accounted here that in the ULF-range the imaginary part of σ xy is small
compared to its real part. Substituting (1.90), (1.91) into (1.86) and (1.87),
we find the Pedersen conductivity
