0 a measure of the electrical resistance of a substance
1 a measure of the electrical resistance of a substance
This speed is smaller than the slow characteristic speed, and decreases for decreasing resistivity.
Zero-flow equilibria could be found only by choosing a somewhat artificial, and likely unphysical, spatial profile for that resistivity; otherwise, velocity fields were required.
The change in the flux depends on the resistivity of the plasma.
If there is an anomalous resistivity located in the vicinity of the sheet, is a non-constant function.
It will be of interest to see how the bounds on the turbulent resistivity compare with experimental measurements.
However, if one wants to integrate further in time, the resistivity has to be lowered to avoid too much diffusion of the current.
The magnetic topology of each example indicates a correlation between resistivity and reconnection.
The anomalous resistivity must be generated by the micro-instability in particle dynamics.
