## Abstract Momentum distribution functions for electrons are calculated for a polar semiconductor with parallel applied electric and magnetic fields. The derivative of the distribution function has singularities at certain electron energies due to the singularity in the density of states at zero e

Abstract
Low field momentum distribution functions and magnetoresistance in a quantizing magnetic field have been calculated numerically for a semiconductor with a parabolic conduction band. The shifting of maxima and minima in the magnetoresistance versus magnetic field curves and the detailed behaviour around the first magnetophonon resonance point are investigated. A second resonance series is noticed for higher lattice temperatures.

Miniband transport in semiconductor superlattices in high electric and magnetic fields aligned parallel to the symmetry axis is studied within a quantum-kinetic approach that accounts for intra-collisional field effects of both fields and the heating of the lateral electron motion. Scattering on aco
