Description for The Origin and Dynamics of Solar Magnetism
hardcover. The book treats all aspects of solar magnetism. Several contributions deal with the solar dynamo, the driver of many solar phenomena. Other contributions treat the transport and emergence of the magnetic flux through the outer layers of the Sun. Editor(s): Thompson, M. J.; Balogh, A. G.; Culhane, J. L.; Nordlund, A.; Solanki, S. K. (Institute of Astronomy, ETH, Zurich, Switzerland); Zahn, Jean-Paul. Series: Space Sciences Series of ISSI. Num Pages: 436 pages, 100 black & white illustrations, 100 colour illustrations. BIC Classification: PGS; PHK; PHVB. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 241 x 164 x 22. Weight in Grams: 856.
Starting in 1995 numerical modeling of the Earth’s dynamo has ourished with remarkable success. Direct numerical simulation of convection-driven MHD- ow in a rotating spherical shell show magnetic elds that resemble the geomagnetic eld in many respects: they are dominated by the axial dipole of approximately the right strength, they show spatial power spectra similar to that of Earth, and the magnetic eld morphology and the temporal var- tion of the eld resembles that of the geomagnetic eld (Christensen and Wicht 2007). Some models show stochastic dipole reversals whose details agree with what has been inferred from paleomagnetic data (Glatzmaier ... Read more
