The anomalous heating and momentum transfer in a current-carrying plasma are calculated including the effects of ion resonance broadening on the nonlinear development of the ion acoustic instability. In the constant-current regime, the anomalous resistivity is found to be of order (TᵢTₑ)3/2ωₚₑ^-1, which compares favorably with the measured resistivity in several experiments.
