Abstract
It is shown that intermittent phasespace structures such as electron h oles resist weak collisions and hence provide new dissipative equilibr ia far away from the thermodynamic one. The associated anomalous plasm a transport is explored for a current carrying plasma and it is argued that these new plasma states lie outside the realm of linear wave the ories and their nonlinear extensions.
