Earth and planetary magnetism  

Description

The course presents an introduction to observations and physical theories of Earth and planetary magnetism. The focus is on describing the large-scale field structure and its time changes. This course provides the tools needed to construct global models of magnetic fields and the physical background needed to interpret magnetic observations made by satellites and on ground. This knowledge forms the basis for diverse applications in navigation and allows the study of planetary interiors.
