The equations of motion of a test particle in a stochastic magnetic fi
eld and interacting through collisions with a plasma are Langevin-type
equations. Under reasonable assumptions on the statistical properties
of the random processes (field and collisional velocity fluctuations)
, we perform an analytical calculation of the mean-square displacement
(MSD) of the particle. The basic nonlinearity in the problem (Lagrang
ian argument of the random field) yields complicated averages, which w
e carry out using a functional formalism. The result is expressed as a
series, and we find the conditions for its convergence, i.e. the limi
ts of validity of our approach (essentially, we must restrict attentio
n to non-chaotic regimes). Further, employing realistic bounds (spectr
al cut-off and limited time of observation), we derive an explicit for
mula for the MSD. We show that from this unique expression, we can obt
ain several previously known results.
