Abstract
We study the effects of driving a magnetically charged black brane solution of Einstein-Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory by a time dependent electric field. From a holographic perspective, we find that placing a sample in a background magnetic field and driving the system via a parallel electric field generates a charge current which may oscillate for long periods and (or) may exhibit non-Ohmic behavior. We discuss how these two effects manifest themselves in various types of quenches and in periodic driving of the sample.
