“…Near the surface of the core, the dipole field is the most predominant in the harmonics, as at the surface of the Earth. In the deeper part a toroidal field is also regarded as the strongest, with strength of the order of 10 mT (BULLARD and GELLMAN,1954;BRAGINSKY, 1964BRAGINSKY, , 1970HIDE, 1966;KUMAR and ROBERTS, 1975;WATANABE, 1977), although PEKERIS et al (1973), SOWARD (1974), BUSSE (1975BUSSE ( , 1977, KRAUSE (1977) and KRAUSE and RADLER (1979) claim that the toroidal field is of the same order of magnitude as the poloidal field. In this paper, therefore, we take the dipole field and the toroidal field of the second degree as the primary magnetic field.…”
