The geomagnetic dynamo - laboratory experiments


The geomagnetic dynamo - laboratory experiments

Stefani, F.; Gerbeth, G.; Gailitis, A.

After seven years of successful experimental dynamo work, and after six years work of the DFG Priority Programme 1097 "Geomagnetic field variations", we summarize what has been achieved in the liquid metal laboratories, and what part of this could be of interest for geodynamo researchers. We try to make a compromise between a general survey of the worldwide dynamo scene, and a stock-taking of the activities in the framework of the Priority Programme. Since one project was directly devoted to the Riga dynamo experiment, we discuss this experiment a bit more in detail.
