An expression for the conductivity tensor of a Lorentzian plasma in the presence of a static magnetic field, which is correct to terms involving the square of the amplitude of the electric vector is derived. This expression along with the wave equation was used to obtaln a second-order solution for the electric vector in the magnetoplasma. The phenomenon of demodulation of an amplitude-modulated wave was also briefly discussed.
