Abstract
A systematic method is described for solving the Boltzmann equation for the steady states of an ionized gas of low density in a strong magnetic field. On the assumption that the term representing the Lorentz force in the Boltzmann equation dominates all others, the solution is developed as a series in inverse powers of the gyration frequency ω. The solution is explicitly carried out to the first order in ω-1. Expressions for the drifts which drise in the first order are also obtained.
