The response of the magnetosphere boundary in a steady solar wind to small initial departures from equilibrium is investigated in accordance with the classical model of Chapman and Ferraro. If the wavelength and amplitude are sufficiently small that curvature and second-order effects can be disregarded, all perturbations, except those having wave fronts aligned with the direction of the local magnetic field, are found to damp exponentially with time and to drift along the boundary with the tangential component of the solar wind. Aligned waves, which neither damp nor amplify in this approximation, are examined further by inclusion of curvature and higher order effects. A first-order analysis shows that curvature introduces a destabilizing effect in small regions in the vicinity of the neutral points and a stabilizing effect elsewhere. Possible geophysical consequences, such as the persistent magnetic agitation of the polar regions, are discussed. An exact solution for an aligned cylindrical solitary wave having an initial form of a circular arc is also presented to illustrate a mode of response that appears to permit injection of elongated and widely separated columns of solar wind plasma into the magnetosphere under certain conditions and to provide a mechanism for momentum transfer from the solar wind to the ambient magnetosphere plasma.

The main magnetic field of the Earth is a complex phenomenon. To understand its origins in the fluid of the Earth's core, and how it changes in time requires a variety of mathematical and physical tools. This book presents the foundations of geomagnetism, in detail and developed from first principles. The book is based on George Backus' courses for graduate students at the University of California, San Diego. The material is mathematically rigorous, but is logically developed and has consistent notation, making it accessible to a broad range of readers. The book starts with an overview of the phenomena of interest in geomagnetism, and then goes on to deal with the phenomena in detail, building the necessary techniques in a thorough and consistent manner. Students and researchers will find this book to be an invaluable resource in the appreciation of the mathematical and physical foundations of geomagnetism.
