Barnett kinetic coefficients in dense charged and neutral media

An approach based on the nonlinear response theory is proposed for determining nonlinear transport properties of nonideal multielement charged and neutral media. A version of this theory developed for describing these properties involves the comparison of phenomenological conservation equations for dense media in the Barnett approximation and microscopic equations for operators of dynamic variables. The Mori algorithm used for formulating the microscopic equations makes it possible to obtain these equations for non-ideal media in the form of generalized nonlinear Langevin equations. As a result, macroscopic expressions are derived for nonlinear kinetic coefficients in the second order in thermal perturbations (of temperature, mass velocity, etc.). The expressions for nonlinear and linearized Barnett kinetic coefficients are compared.
