First, some basic concepts and magnitudes will be introduced to describe the field at the surface of the Earth. After brief historical notes, the declination and inclination maps and the temporal changes of the field (fast, slow, drift and inversion of the poles) will be described. Finally the dynamo theory, which is the currently accepted for explaining the origin of the field, will be introduced.


This talk will be in English for general audience.


ALBA Talks - Internal seminars

Based on the previous series of internal seminars, that were performed between 2012-2013, a new cycle of seminars is addressed to all staff. The aim of the project is to share knowledge about the activities carried out by the different divisions in the ALBA Synchrotron as well to improve the scientific culture of all the members of the staff.

Seminars will be held on Fridays at 12:00 h, lasting each of them less than one hour.
