Abstract
We study nonlinear transport through a classical ballistic system accounting for the Coulomb interaction between electrons. The joint effect of the applied bias and magnetic field on the electron trajectories results in a component of the non-linear current which lacks the symmetry: . At zero temperature the magnitude of is of the same order as that arising from the quantum interference mechanism. At higher temperatures the classical mechanism is expected to dominate due to its relatively weak temperature dependence.
