Key Equations

$$\frac{\partial n_s}{\partial t} + \nabla \cdot (n_s \mathbf{u}_s) = 0$$
$$\nabla \times \mathbf{B} = \mu_0 \mathbf{J} + \frac{1}{c^2}\frac{\partial \mathbf{E}}{\partial t}$$
$$-\frac{\nabla p_e}{en}$$
$$\omega \approx \Omega_{ci} \sqrt{1 + k_\perp^2 \rho_i^2}$$

Equations are rendered with MathJax in the PDF with professional LaTeX typesetting.
