AB - In modern inertial fusion experiments there is a complex interplay betweennon-locality and magnetisation that can greatly influence transport. In thiswork we use a matrix recursion method to include higher-order correctionsbeyond the diffusion approximation usually used for magnetised plasmas. Workingin the linear regime, we show this can account for arbitrary orders of thedistribution function expansion in Knudsen non-locality parameter$k\lambda_{ei}$. Transport coefficients, such as thermal conductivity, deviatesignificantly from the magnetised diffusive approximation. In particular weshow how higher orders of the expansion contribute to transport asynchronouslyparallel, perpendicular and cross-perpendicular to a uniform magnetic fieldperpendicular to plasma perturbation.
