&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Drift physics&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; describes motion of charged particles in electromagnetic fields when gradients or forces are present.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Drift phenomena arise from the [[Physics:Quantum Vlasov equation|Vlasov equation]] and [[Physics:Quantum kinetic theory|kinetic theory]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Types of drift ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* E × B drift:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mathbf{v} = \frac{\mathbf{E}\times\mathbf{B}}{B^2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Gradient drift  &lt;br /&gt;
* Curvature drift  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Role in transport ==&lt;br /&gt;
Drift effects are central to [[Physics:Quantum Transport theory|transport theory]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Connection to MHD ==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Physics:Quantum Magnetohydrodynamics|Magnetohydrodynamics]] does not fully capture drift effects.&lt;br /&gt;
