| Zusammenfassung |
| This is a translation of the Allgemeine Theorie des Erdmagnetismus
published by Carl Friedrich Gauss in 1839 in the Resultate aus den
Beobachtungen des Magnetischen Vereins im Jahre 1838. The current
translation is based on an earlier translation by Elizabeth Juliana Sabine
published in 1841. This earlier translation has been revised, corrected, and
extended. Numerous biographical comments on the scientists named in the
original text have been added as well as further information on the
observational material used by Carl Friedrich Gauss. An attempt is made to
provide a readable text to a wider scientific community, a text laying the
foundation of today's understanding of planetary magnetic fields. |
