| Zusammenfassung |
| Fractal theory is applied in a quantitative
analysis of geomagnetic storms. Fractal dimensions (D) of the attractor
for storm data from the Beijing observatory (40.0°N, 116.2°E) using several
time intervals are calculated. A maximum value of 1.4 has been obtained for a
geomagnetic storm; on quite days the dimension is only slightly larger than 0.5.
Data from two storms are analyzed here. Results show that a combination of both D
and the magnetic index, k, can perhaps describe the degree of solar
disturbance better than the single parameter k. |
