reduced kinetic description of magnetized plasma that averages over fast gyration, used to model low-frequency turbulence.

In plasma physics, gyrokinetics refers to reduced kinetic description of magnetized plasma that averages over fast gyration, used to model low-frequency turbulence. This meaning comes from Frieman (1982) in The Physics of Fluids.[1]
