Dynamo theory is the study of how large-scale magnetic fields
can arise in bodies such as the Earth, Sun and stars, and it brings
together researchers in such diverse subjects as geophysics,
astronomy and nuclear reactor technology. In this book are papers
on the theory of dynamos, delivered at the Isaac Newton Institute
for Mathematical Sciences in Cambridge in September 1992, and these
have been carefully brought together to form a unified
presentation. Topics covered include: modelling of solar magnetic
field generation, theoretical studies of the galaxies, and papers
on ''fast dynamos'', study of magnetic field regeneration in fluid of
very high electrical conductivity. This volume represents a
comprehensive record of research into the theory of dynamos.
