Abstract

Using the linear fractional transformation, connecting effective conductivities sigma_{e} of isotropic two-phase systems with and without magnetic field, explicit approximate expressions for sigma_{e} in a magnetic field are obtained. They allow to describe sigma_{e} of various inhomogeneous media at arbitrary phase concentrations x and magnetic fields. the x-dependence plots of sigma_e at some values of inhomogeneity and magnetic field are constructed. Their behaviour is qualitatively compatible with the existing experimental data. The obtained results are applicable for different two-phase systems (regular and nonregular as well as random), satisfying the symmetry and self-duality conditions, and admit a direct experimental checking.
