Beschreibung
The articles in this volume cover, for the first time, all aspects of planetary magnetism, from the observations made by space missions to their interpretation in terms of the properties of all the planets in the solar system. Studies of dynamo-generated magnetic fields in Mercury, the Earth, the giant planets, as well as in Ganymede, one of Jupiter’s moons, are presented. Crustal magnetic field in Mars, the Mon and the Earth are described as well as magnetic fields induced in the solar system bodies. There are several articles dealing with dynamo theory and modelling and applications to the different planets.
First comprehensive review of planetary magnetism, planetary dynamos and the interiors of planets Covers all aspects of the planets' magnetic fields and how they are generated Contributions from those who first explored the planets and explained their magnetism
