| contents | We develop a hydrodynamic description of electron magnetotransport in conductors without Galilean invariance in the presence of a weak long-range disorder potential. We show that magnetoresistance becomes strong (of order 100 %) at relatively small fields, at which the inverse square of the magnetic length becomes comparable to disorder-induced variations of the electron density. The mechanism responsible for this anomalously strong magnetoresistance can be traced to the appearance of magnetic friction force in liquids with nonvanishing intrinsic conductivity. We derive general results for the galvanomagnetic and thermomagnetic kinetic coefficients, and obtain their dependence on the intrinsic dissipative properties of the electron liquid and the correlation function of the disorder potential. We apply this theory to graphene close to charge neutrality and cover the crossover to a high-density regime. |
