A magnetic field B is found to be convected by the electron heat flux q/sub e/ because of the Nernst effect, i.e., with a velocity V/sub T/(approx.2q/sub e//3n/sub e/T/sub e/). In laser-driven ablation the convection is towards the overdense region and B can be amplified by 10--100 times due to delxV/sub T/ c/..omega../sub pe/. The spatially extended and amplified magnetic field can inhibit hot-electron transport, reducing preheat. For ..omega../sub e/tau/sub e/>1, the critical and ablation surfaces are brought closer together, which increases hydrodynamic coupling.
