contents The extended guiding-center Lagrangian equations of motion are derived by Lie-transform method under the assumption of time-dependent and inhomogeneous electric and magnetic fields that satisfy the standard guiding-center orderings for space-time scales. Polarization effects are introduced into the Lagrangian dynamics by the inclusion of the polarization drift velocity in the guiding-center velocity and the appearance of finite-Larmor-radius corrections in the guiding-center Hamiltonian and guiding-center Poisson bracket.

The extended guiding-center Lagrangian equations of motion are derived by Lie-transform method under the assumption of time-dependent and inhomogeneous electric and magnetic fields that satisfy the standard guiding-center orderings for space-time scales. Polarization effects are introduced into the Lagrangian dynamics by the inclusion of the polarization drift velocity in the guiding-center velocity and the appearance of finite-Larmor-radius corrections in the guiding-center Hamiltonian and guiding-center Poisson bracket.
