Magnetic Field : Sun

Just like a planetary dynamo generates a magnetic field inside the planet, solar dynamo is responsible for the solar magnetic field. The Sun is composed of plasma, i.e, charged particles, which in motion produce magnetic fields. This field is carried away from the sun towards the planets in all directions...

EGU Early Career Scientist Award (EMRP): Richard Bono

I am a Leverhulme Early Career Fellow working on research questions which bridge core processes, such as the geodynamo, to crust-to-space effects, including magnetic shielding and the evolution of life. Currently, I work in the Geomagnetism Laboratory at the University of Liverpool and in January 2022,...

From scientists to everyone: the IGRF Model

In IAGA there is a group called V-MOD: Geomagnetic Field Modeling, part of Division V. The aim of this group is "to promote and coordinate international efforts to model and analyze the internal geomagnetic field and its secular variation on both global and regional scales". The main result of...
