Drift of a Charged Particle in a Magnetic Field of Constant Gradient

A simple expression for the drift velocity of a charged particle moving in an inhomo, geneous magnetic field has been obtained by Alfven, who, in his first-order theory, considered the inhomogeneity as a small perturbation of a uniform field,
