Hrus¿ka, A. (1978). A fluid description of hot collisionless plasma and limits to the double-adiabatic approximation associated with the presence of Birkeland currents. Journal of Geophysical Research 83: doi: 10.1029/JA083iA05p02208. issn: 0148-0227.

The large-scale structure of a slowly moving plasma is discussed, a modified Chew-Goldberger-Low approximation being used. The double-adiabatic relations for pressure components fail if there is a nonzero current flowing perpendicularly to the binormals to field lines.
