In this paper we generalize the formalism developed by Balescu and Paiva-Veretennicoff, valid for any kind of weak turbulence, for the determination of all the transport coefficients of an unmagnetized turbulent plasma, to the case of a magnetized one, and suggest a technique to avoid finding the inverse of the turbulent collision operator. The implicit plasmadynamical equations of a two-fluid plasma are presented by means of plasmadynamical variables. The anomalous transport coefficients appear in their natural places in these equations. It is shown that the necessary number of transport coefficients for describing macroscopically the magnetized turbulent plasma does not exceed the number for the unmagnetized one. The typical turbulent and gyromotion terms, representing dissipative effects peculiar to the magnetized system, which contribute to the frequency-dependent transport coefficients are clearly exhibited.

A generalized variational principle has been formulated which takes the phonon distribution functions and the external magnetic field into account, is valid for an arbitrary direction of the electric field and polarization of the lattice vibrations, and does not depend on any special form of the energy surfaces. The various transport coefficients, for both thermoelectric and thermomagnetic phenomena, are obtained by the Ritz method in terms of infinite determinants without requiring an explicit solution of the transport equations.

Transport coefficients LPP, LPE, LEP, and LEE for electrokinetic equations according to irreversible thermodynamics, the Onsager coefficients, were measured for isolated Nitella flexilis cell walls in KCl solutions ranging from 10−4 to 100 normal. LPP and LPE (= LEP) were found to be independent of KCl concentration and equal to 1.4 × 10−6 cm3 sec−1 cm−2 (joule cm−3)−1 cm and 6 × 10−5 cm3 sec−1 cm−2 volt−1 cm respectively. LEE was a function of the salt concentration, reaching a limiting value of about 1.2 × 10−3 mho cm−1 in 10−4 N KCl. The activation energy for movement of KCl in cell walls was found to be 4.33 Kcal mole−1; the diffusion coefficient for KCl in cell walls was calculated by two methods to be 8 × 10−6 cm2 sec−1; and the concentration of the fixed ions in Nitella cell walls from the above data was estimated at greater than 0.04 equivalent per liter of cell wall. Electroosmosis in Nitella membranes is re-examined in the light of the measured transport coefficients and it is concluded that under proper conditions the cell wall of Nitella can contribute significantly (~20% or more) to the observed electroosmosis of living Nitella cells.
