Abstract
Thermal and electric charge transport in a weakly magnetized quark-gluon plasma has been studied within the framework of an effective kinetic theory.The thermal dissipation in the medium is due to the temperature gradient over the spatial separations of fluid and can be described in terms of thermal conductivity.The Hall-type conductivity associated with thermal dissipation in the medium in the presence of a weak magnetic field has been explored.The induced electric current densities and the associated electrical conductivities in response to an external electric field in a weakly magnetized medium have been estimated.The relative significance of thermal transport and electric charge transport in a weakly magnetized quark-gluon plasma has been studied in terms of Wiedemann-Franz law.
