Abstract
ORIGIN OF TERRESTRIAL MAGNETISM.—The Observatory for January contains a translation by Prof. L. A. Bauer, of the U.S. Geodetic Service, of an article in Ciel et Terre, December 16, 1900, containing the results obtained by Dr. Schmidt from an important harmonic analysis of the permanent magnetic field of the earth. This work has been practically an amplification of Gauss' “Théorie générale du magnétisme terrestre.”
