The occurrence of a strong positive magnetoresistance at low effective magnetic fields as well as Weiss oscillations, which were observed in recent experiments in such systems, can be explained within a semi-classical Boltzmann equation approach, provided one goes beyond a second order approximation in the modulation strength.4 pages, 2 figuresMesoscale and Nanoscale Physicstext
