Scientific paper

A non-MHD diffusive plasma transport process which is able to tap the stored energy of a plasma in the same way as MHD interchange motions is described. It is argued that traveling wave interchange motions can arise in the plasma sheet but do not arise in the inner cold torus or at the hot/cold torus boundary. The way in which such motions could lead to rapid diffusive plasma transport is examined.
