About This Book
Physics of Geomagnetic Phenomena, Volume II covers the advances in geomagnetism and the penetrations into the generation of geomagnetic field phenomena. This book is composed of three chapters and begins with a discussion on various types of phenomenal disturbances, such as ionospheric and geomagnetic disturbance, aurora, and storm. The next chapter describes certain aspects of space geomagnetism based on satellite and rocket observations. This chapter also examines the origins of geomagnetic disturbance phenomena. The last chapter surveys the problems connected with studies of geomagnetic storms and auroras, along with a hydromagnetic model of these phenomena. This book will be of value to physicists, theoreticians, and scientists in allied fields of geomagnetism.
