Abstract
Calculations of the magnetoresistance of graphite acceptor compounds are made using a tight binding model for the carrier dispersion proposed by Blinowski et al, and measured values of the zero-field resistivity. It is shown that, if a reasonable physical model is used for the mobilities, the magnetoresistance cannot be fitted with two- or three-carrier models. Suggestions for the origin of the magnetoresistance are made.
