The work examines the transport of electrons between the electrodes in a capacitive radio -frequency discharge, ignited in the plasma source having the geometry of a stationary plasma thruster. Comparisons of the discharge impedance, determined on the basis of experimental volt-ampere characteristics, with calculations made in the assumption of the applicability of classical conductivity across the magnetic field, showed a significant divergence of the results. Keywords: capacitive, radio-frequency, discharge, magnetic field, impedance.
