Abstract

The theory of magnetic breakdown, taking account of the spin of the conduction electrons, is used to calculate the galvanomagnetic properties of aluminum, where the system of electron trajectories in a magnetic field contains small β orbits. Expressions are obtained for the magnetoresistance and Hall resistance in the case of a two-dimensional magnetic-breakdown network of trajectories on the basis of stochastic electron motion on large orbits and coherent electron motion on the β orbits. Qualitative agreement is obtained with the existing experimental data.
