| Abstract: | Abstract Because an external magnetic field does no work on moving charges, it is argued that independently migrating point defects in an ionic crystal cannot exhibit any Hall effect, to first order. This is in sharp contrast to the cooperative motions displayed by superionic conductors. Experimental results on interstitial migration in AgBr and α—AgI agree with these expectations. |
