A simple and well known model for thermal radiation spectra from a magnetized neutron star is further studied. The model assumes that the star is internally isothermal and possesses a dipole magnetic field (B≲1014 G) in the outer heat-insulating layer. The heat transport through this layer makes the surface temperature distribution anisotropic; any local surface element is assumed to emit a blackbody (BB) radiation with a local effective temperature. It is shown that this thermal emission is nearly independent of the chemical composition of insulating envelope (at the same taken averaged effective surface temperature). Adding a slight extra heating of magnetic poles allows one to be qualitatively consistent with observations of some isolated neutron stars.

A variant of the thermoelectric model of the Earth's dipole magnetic field is considered. It is based on geothermoelectric currents present in the planet's core. The currents cyclically change their direction, which leads over time either to warming on the Earth, if their movement is directed towards the Earth's crust, or to cooling, when moving towards the inner core. With each change in the direction of movement of the thermal currents, the poles of the Earth's magnetic field are inverted simultaneously. The inversion process is instantaneous (on the scale of planetary time) and is not the result of a gradual reversal on the 180° Earth's magnetic axis. At the moment of inversions of thermal currents in the core, the total geomagnetic field decreases to the level of 4.6∙10-6 T, which is constantly supported by thermal currents of semi-conducting rocks of the lower mantle. The considered version of the thermoelectric model of the Earth's magnetic field may be promising for studying the magnetic fields of planets in the Solar system.

AbstractIn this study, we investigated the geomagnetic ground observatory data from 1980 to 2011 collected from World Data Center from 134 stations. To analyze the data we have applied spherical harmonic decomposition to obtain components associated with the Earth’s main magnetic field and to calculate how the Earth’s dipole was varying in the aforementioned recent 31-year period. There is a visible ~ 2.3% decay of the dipole magnetic field of the Earth. We note that the present-day value of the magnetic dipole intensity is the lowest one in the history of modern civilization and that further drop of this value may pose a risk for different domains of our life.

The paper presents the results of studies of the seasonal variability of statistical relationships between Magnetoconjugated Points (MCP) of the ionosphere. The analysis is based on the calculation of the correlation coefficients between the variations in the Total Electron Content (TEC) at points located on the same field line of the dipole magnetic field on both sides of the geomagnetic equator. Global TEC maps were used as initial data. For the four seasons of 2009 and 2015, the values of the Pearson’s correlation coefficient between the variations in the Total Electron Content in the MCP were calculated. For two levels of solar activity, we examined the seasonal features of statistical relationships between TEC variations at points located on the same field line of the dipole magnetic field on both sides of the geomagnetic equator. Pearson's correlation coefficient was calculated for the mean daily TEC variations. It was shown in the work that during the period of low solar activity, the correlation between the TEC variations in the MCP regions is weak or absent, except for autumn. In 2015, a significant correlation between magnetoconjugated regions is observed during all seasons, while in winter and summer they are localized at low latitudes and in spring and autumn at high and middle latitudes.

Observations of exoplanets open a new area of scientific activity and the structure of exoplanet magnetospheres is an important part of this area. Here we use symmetry arguments and experiences in spherical dynamo modeling to obtain the set of possible magnetic configurations for exoplanets and their corresponding host stars. The main part of our results is that the possible choice is much richer than the basic dipole magnetic field of both exoplanets and stars. Other options, for example, are quadrupole configurations or mixed parity solutions. Expected configurations of current sheets for the above mentioned exoplanet host star systems are presented as well.
