Recently Nagasawa determined a method of calculation of the electric conductivity in a lowly ionized gas, which leads to more precise results than the formula given by Alfvén. The numerical calculation, however, is much more complicated for the Nagasawa method. This paper simplifies the calculation giving a relation, by means of which the Alfvén values of Nagasawa are obtained in a rather simple way.
