%X Expressions are derived for the electron concentration in Townsend discharges in the presence of a transverse magnetic field for both steady state and pulsed conditions. These results indicate that the two components of the electron drift velocity and the four diffusion coefficients required to describe the concentration distribution can be determined by observation of photons emitted from the discharge.
