The fluid equations governing a magnetized plasma in a spatially flat metric are formulated using the 3+1 formalism of Thorne and MacDonald. Plasma physics and cosmology are two well-established fields in theoretical physics. The linearized theory of plasmas in the early universe is an ideal area of study before tackling more complicated nonlinear effects.
