Abstract

The quasiclassical kinetic equation for the conduction electrons distribution function and boundary conditions for this equation are written in “action‐angle” variables. It allows to obtain a relation between the boundary condition parameters and the quantum surface collision integral for conduction electrons with an arbitrary dispersion law. The use of the “action‐angle” variables is found to be very convenient for the conductivity calculation in films and wires in a longitudinal magnetic field. With their help general formulas for the longitudinal magnetoresistance both of films and wires with an arbitrary conduction electron dispersion law and an arbitrary surface scattering are obtained.
