AbstractGlobal magnetic structure has been inferred in spiral galaxies from radio and optical observations. The author has developed a three dimensional, quasi-global kinematic dynamo model which demonstrates the possibility of maintaining large-scale magnetic fields by the αω mechanism. Analytical expressions for large-scale galactic magnetic fields near temporal steady states have been derived. Illustrations of the spatial distribution of vector and absolute large-scale magnetic field strength are presented. When coupled with observations this model may help in understanding the maintenance and morphologies inferred for disk and halo global magnetic fields in spiral galaxies.
