Contribution

It derives dispersion relations for chiral plasma with dissipative corrections and introduces a novel explanation for pulsar kicks.

Findings

Derived dispersion relations for chiral plasma

Identified effects of magnetic fields on plasma modes

Proposed a new pulsar kick mechanism

Abstract

In the present work, we have studied the collective behaviour of a chiral plasma with first and second order dissipative corrections allowed by conformal symmetry. We have derived dispersion relations for ideal, first order and second order MHD for the chiral plasma. We have also used our results to explain the observed pulsar kicks.
