Abstract
The observed correlation of the angular momenta Lik and magnetic moments μlm of celestial bodies (the Sun, planets and stars) was discussed by many authors but without any explanation. In this paper, a possible explanation of this phenomenon is suggested. It is shown that the function satisfies Maxwell equations and can be considered as a function which determines the electro-magnetic properties of rotating heavy bodies. The Riklm is the Riemann tensor, which determines the gravitational field of the body, rg is the gravitational radius of the body, and η is the constant which has to be determined by observations. The field Φlm describes the observed correlation. It explains the stability of magnetic field of white dwarfs and neutron stars despite the ohmic dissipation. The function Φl0 describes the electric field created by rotating heavy bodies. The presented theory does not contradict any existed experiments and observations.
Highlights
To explain the μ L correlation, we assume: 1) the existence of an electromagnetic field which is created by rotation of a body, 2) this field has to be described by Maxwell equation, 3) this field has to be linearly dependent on the body angular momentum, 4) this field is significant only for very heavy bodies such as stars and planets
Astronomical data show that there exists correlation of the magnetic moments and angular momenta for all celestial bodies
It is impossible that the correlation of such a mechanical property, as the angular momentum Lik and the electromagnetic property, characterized by magnetic moment μ, can appear accidentally for all celestial bodies in the interval more than twenty orders of magnitude in L and μ, with scattering about two orders of magnitude
Summary
To explain the μ L correlation, we assume: 1) the existence of an electromagnetic field which is created by rotation of a body, 2) this field has to be described by Maxwell equation, 3) this field has to be linearly dependent on the body angular momentum, 4) this field is significant only for very heavy bodies such as stars and planets. The dependence of the metric gik on the potential φ is much stronger than on Lik. Using the obtained Riklm values and choosing the axis Z along the angular momentum, i.e. taking Lik = L12 = Lz = IΩ where I is the moment of inertia and Ω is the angular velocity, we obtain the field inside the body that is approximately constant. In other words: can the Φlm be considered as the tensor of the electromagnetic field, created by rotation of heavy bodies? In such a case, some perturbations may change the magnetic field direction with respect to the direction of the angular momentum Lik. The change of the field polarity may be due to some irregular or regular changes of motions inside the body. The change of the field direction took place several times in the Earth history
