Clarification of the Hall effect as an energy transfer mechanism in a theory of the Earth’s magnetic field and sunspots
Abstract. Clarification is offered of the energy transfer role played by the Hall effect in a recent paper: de Paor, A., A theory of the Earth's magnetic field and of sunspots, based on a self-excited dynamo incorporating the Hall effect, Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 8, 265-279, 2001.
