Description
"This volume is the first comprehensive review of planetary magnetism. Articles cover the origin, nature and characteristic properties of magnetic fields in and around the eight planets in the solar system. Similarly, the often surprising magnetic properties of other objects, such as the Galilean moons of Jupiter, as well as asteroids, are reviewed. The history of measurements of magnetic fields around solar system bodies is also thoroughly covered. The origin of magnetic fields in the diverse planetary dynamos is described in several articles, based on the distinctive features of the interiors of the terrestrial and giant planets. Crustal magnetisation and induced magnetisation are also reviewed, given their important roles in both planetary magnetism and the magnetic fields associated with even unmagnetised objects." --BACK COVER.
