Abstract
THE working hypothesis, upon which my research into the modes of the transference of energy from the sun to the earth has been conducted, includes the electro-magnetic radiation along the ecliptic, and the magnetic radiation at right angles to the ecliptic, near the earth.There are evidently three principal branches to the problem, (1) the vectors of the electromagnetic field at the earth, (2) the vectors of the magnetic field at the earth, (3) the transformation of these ether vibrations in the atmosphere into heat, electricity and mechanical forces.In previous papers, the vectors of the electro• magnetic field have been given, some important relations in the transformation of the magnetic field into heat have been shown and the natur~ of a number of subordinate problems developed.In this paper it is proposed to give the vectors of the polar magnetic field at the earth, together with certain deductions suggested by the same.It is most important to exhibit in detail the stream lines of this cosmical magnetic field emitted by the sun, at the earth, because the theory of a magnetic radiation from the sun is so novel to science, that its existence may have seemed purely hypothetical to many who have not attempted to study the same in its individual effects.If the several sets of phenomena attributed to it, namely the aurora, magnet.icdisturbances, earth currents, and meteorological periodic variations, actually have their seat in this cause, then it is clear that a definite system of forces, well adapted to produce
