Where is the seat of origin of main geomagnetic field?
Answers
Geomagnetic field, magnetic field associated with the Earth. It primarily is dipolar (i.e., it has two poles, these being the north and south magnetic poles) on the Earth’s surface. Away from the surface the dipole becomes distorted.
In the 1830s the German mathematician and astronomer Carl Friedrich Gauss studied the Earth’s magnetic field and concluded that the principal dipolar component had its origin inside the Earth instead of outside. He demonstrated that the dipolar component was a decreasing function inversely proportional to the square of the Earth’s radius, a conclusion that led scientists to speculate on the origin of the Earth’s magnetic field in terms of ferromagnetism (as in a gigantic bar magnet), various rotation theories, and various dynamo theories. Ferromagnetism and rotation theories generally are discredited—ferromagnetism because the Curie point (the temperature at which ferromagnetism is destroyed) is reached only 20 or so kilometres (about 12 miles) beneath the surface, and rotation theories because apparently no fundamental relation exists between mass in motion and an associated magnetic field. Most geomagneticians concern themselves with various dynamo theories, whereby a source of energy in the core of the Earth causes a self-sustaining magnetic field.
