Abstract

The strong-field magneto-transport in a generic three-dimensional composite with a periodic microstructure where all the constituents are normal metals is considered. The macroscopic response in such systems turns out to be considerably simpler than it is in the absence of a magnetic field. Closed form asymptotic expressions are found for the microscopic current distributions and macroscopic effective magneto-resistivity tensor components. Numerical calculations of the current distributions and effective magneto-resistivity tensor components are also performed and compared with the closed form asymptotic expressions. A new critical point is identified.
