The toroidal field falls to zero within a very narrow region near the surface of the star to meet the boundary conditions. The strength of the toroidal field predicted is around nine orders of magnitude larger than the poloidal field. This is because the Ω–effect, the conversion of poloidal field into toroidal field by differential rotation, is much stronger than the α–effect which regenerates the poloidal field."<a href="#cite_note-Potter-9">[9]</a> The "surface value of the field [is taken] to be the strength of the toroidal field just below the boundary layer. [Taking] the poloidal field [as the surface field means] a larger value of γ to produce a stronger field. In this case the toroidal field is around six orders of magnitude larger than the poloidal field. So a surface poloidal field of 103 G would correspond to a toroidal field of 109 G just below the surface. The fields then increase by several orders of magnitude towards the core. Not only do these field strengths seem unreasonably energetic but also the magnetic stresses result in cores that are spinning near or above break–up velocity. However, spectropolarimetric observations have concluded that the large–scale structure of the external magnetic fields of massive stars are largely dipolar so there must be some mechanism for converting the toroidal field into poloidal field at the surface. It is likely that the stellar wind stretches the field lines in the radial direction, changing the toroidal field to a radial geometry as material is ejected from the stellar surface".<a href="#cite_note-Potter-9">[9]</a> "The transition between a strong [...] field and no field is sharpest in rapid rotators.

The differential profile of the surface was thought to extend into the solar interior as rotating cylinders of constant angular momentum.<a href="#cite_note-Glatzmaler-31">[31]</a> Through helioseismology this is now known not to be the case and the rotation profile of the Sun has been found. On the surface the Sun rotates slowly at the poles and quickly at the equator. This profile extends on roughly radial lines through the solar convection zone to the interior. At the tachocline the rotation abruptly changes to solid body rotation in the solar radiation zone.<a href="#cite_note-Christensen-7">[7]</a>"<a href="#cite_note-SolarRotation-8">[8]</a> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Electromagnetics">Electromagnetics</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Stars/Radiative_dynamo&veaction=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: Electromagnetics" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor">edit</a> | <a href="/w/index.php?title=Stars/Radiative_dynamo&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section's source code: Electromagnetics">edit source</a>]</div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r2661592"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main resources: <a href="/wiki/Charges/Interactions/Electromagnetics" title="Charges/Interactions/Electromagnetics">Charges/Interactions/Electromagnetics</a> and <a href="/w/index.php?title=Radiation_astronomy/Electromagnetics&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Radiation astronomy/Electromagnetics (page does not exist)">Radiation astronomy/Electromagnetics</a></div> Albert "Einstein believed that there might be an asymmetry between the charges of the electron and proton so that the Earth's magnetic field would be produced by the entire Earth."<a href="#cite_note-DynamoTheory-19">[19]</a> "In the case of the Earth, the magnetic field is induced and constantly maintained by the convection of liquid iron in the outer core.

As the plate spreads and cools, it becomes magnetized in the direction of the Earth’s strong global field. Since Earth’s global field changes direction a few times every million years, on average, a flow that cools in one period will be magnetized in a different direction than a later flow. As the new crust is pushed out and away from the ridge, stripes of alternating magnetic fields aligned with the ridge axis develop.

This strong magnetic field and Jupiter’s fast rotation (rotation period ~ 9 h 55 min) create a unique magnetosphere in the solar system which is known for its immense size (average subsolar magnetopause distance 45-100 RJ where 1 RJ = 71492 km is the radius of Jupiter) and fast rotation [...]. Jupiter’s magnetosphere differs from most other magnetospheres in the fact that it derives much of its plasma internally from Jupiter’s moon <a href="/w/index.php?title=Io&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Io (page does not exist)">Io</a>.

It is believed that the radial diffusion is driven by the ionospheric dynamo fields produced by winds in Jupiter’s atmosphere"<a href="#cite_note-Khurana-61">[61]</a> "In situ and remote observations of Io and its surroundings from Voyager showed that Io is the main source of plasma in Jupiter’s magnetosphere [...] "<a href="#cite_note-Khurana-61">[61]</a> "It is estimated that upward of 6 × 1029 amu/s (~ 1 ton/s) of plasma mass is added to the magnetosphere by Io.

Such a calculation suggests that the solar wind source strength is < 100 kg/s (Hill et al. 1983) considerably lower than the Io source. Nevertheless, the number density of protons (as opposed to the mass density) may be comparable to the iogenic plasma number density in the middle and outer magnetospheres where the solar wind may be able to gain access to the magnetosphere."<a href="#cite_note-Khurana-61">[61]</a> "The escape of ions (mainly H+ and H2+ ) from the ionosphere of Jupiter provides the next significant source of plasma in Jupiter’s magnetosphere. The ionospheric plasma escapes along field lines when the gravity of Jupiter is not able to contain the hot plasma (~ 10 eV and above). The escape however is not uniform and depends on the local photoelectron density, the temperature variations of the ionosphere with the solar zenith angle, other factors such as the auroral precipitation of ions and electrons and the ionospheric heating from Pedersen currents. In situ measurements show that in Io’s torus, protons contribute to less than 20% of total ion number density and constitute < 1% of mass suggesting that the ionosphere is not a major source of plasma in Jupiter’s magnetosphere. [The] ionospheric source strength [is] in the range of ~ 20 kg/s."<a href="#cite_note-Khurana-61">[61]</a> The "surface sputtering of the three icy satellites by jovian plasma provides the last significant source of plasma in Jupiter’s magnetosphere.

However, in 2005 NASA's Cassini spacecraft discovered a giant plume of water gushing from cracks in the surface over the moon's south pole, indicating that there was a reservoir of water beneath the ice. Analysis of the plume by Cassini revealed that the water is salty, indicating the reservoir is large, perhaps even a global subsurface ocean. Scientists estimate from the Cassini data that the south polar heating is equivalent to a continuous release of about 13 billion watts of energy."<a href="#cite_note-Steigerwald-64">[64]</a> "To explain this mysterious warmth, some scientists invoke radiation coupled with tidal heating. As it formed, Enceladus (like all solar system objects) incorporated matter from the cloud of gas and dust left over from our sun’s formation. In the outer solar system, as Enceladus formed it grew as ice and rock coalesced. If Enceladus was able to gather greater amounts of rock, which contained radioactive elements, enough heat could have been generated by the decay of the radioactive elements in its interior to melt the body."<a href="#cite_note-Steigerwald-64">[64]</a> "Enceladus' orbit around Saturn is slightly oval-shaped. As it travels around Saturn, Enceladus moves closer in and then farther away. When Enceladus is closer to Saturn, it feels a stronger gravitational pull from the planet than when it is farther away. Like gently squeezing a rubber ball slightly deforms its shape, the fluctuating gravitational tug on Enceladus causes it to flex slightly. The flexing, called gravitational tidal forcing, generates heat from friction deep within Enceladus."<a href="#cite_note-Steigerwald-64">[64]</a> "The gravitational tides also produce stress that cracks the surface ice in certain regions, like the south pole, and may be reworking those cracks daily. Tidal stress can pull these cracks open and closed while shearing them back and forth. As they open and close, the sides of the south polar cracks move as much as a few feet, and they slide against each other by up to a few feet as well. This movement also generates friction, which (like vigorously rubbing your hands together) releases extra heat at the surface at locations that should be predictable with our understanding of tidal stress."<a href="#cite_note-Steigerwald-64">[64]</a> "To test the tidal heating theory, scientists with the Cassini team created a map of the gravitational tidal stress on the moon's icy crust and compared it to a map of the warm zones created using Cassini's composite infrared spectrometer instrument (CIRS). Assuming the greatest stress is where the most friction occurs, and therefore where the most heat is released, areas with the most stress should overlap the warmest zones on the CIRS map."<a href="#cite_note-Steigerwald-64">[64]</a> "However, they don't exactly match."<a href="#cite_note-Hurford-65">[65]</a> "For example, in the fissure called the Damascus Sulcus, the area experiencing the greatest amount of shearing is about 50 kilometers (about 31 miles) from the zone of greatest heat."<a href="#cite_note-Hurford-65">[65]</a> "Enceladus' wobble, technically called "libration," is barely noticeable."<a href="#cite_note-Steigerwald-64">[64]</a> "Cassini observations have ruled out a wobble greater than about 2 degrees with respect to Enceladus' uniform rotation rate."<a href="#cite_note-Hurford-65">[65]</a> A "computer simulation [...] made maps of the surface stress on Enceladus for various wobbles, and found a range where the areas of greatest stress line up better with the observed warmest zones."<a href="#cite_note-Steigerwald-64">[64]</a> "Depending on whether the wobble moves with or against the movement of Saturn in Enceladus' sky, a wobble ranging from 2 degrees down to 0.75 degrees produces the best fit to the observed warmest zones,"<a href="#cite_note-Hurford-65">[65]</a> "The wobble also helps with the heating conundrum by generating about five times more heat in Enceladus’ interior than tidal stress alone, and the extra heat makes it likely that Enceladus' ocean could be long-lived, according to Hurford.
