Abstract
Equilibrium transport coefficients are calculated for a three-dimensional magnetized plasma. It is shown that the transverse spatial diffusion and conductivity coefficients are related via a generalized Einstein relation. These coefficients have both a (volume dependent) term (with a uniform magnetic field) as well as a (volume independent) term for a finite plasma. For an infinite plasma, the coefficients have a "classical" dependence.
