32. Interplanetary magnetic field
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 18 July 2016
Abstract
The magnetic field outside the sun (interplanetary magnetic field) is certainly far from a dipole field. A model of it has recently been suggested (Tellus, 8, 1, 1956). This model is in agreement with cosmic ray and magnetic storm data and reconcilable with the coronal ray structure. Some possibilities to check the model are discussed.
