The Origin of Geomagnetism

Abstract

The paper clarifies that a magnetic field is not a real material existence and concludes that a magnetic field is essentially a contracting electric field in motion. Based on this new principle, all electromagnetic laws can be derived and proven. Experiments confirm that there is indeed an electrostatic field around a static magnetic field, which is a powerful scientific proof of the new principle that a magnetic field is a contracting electric field in motion. The paper believes that the westward movement of negative ion-containing air in the Earth's upper layers is the fundamental reason for the generation of geomagnetism. Due to the fact that a magnetic field is a contracting electric field in motion, the author determines that people in different motion situations will see different moving electric fields on the Earth, namely, they will see different geomagnetic fields. He further determines that an observer outside the Earth who is stationary relative to the Sun will see a strong geomagnetic field with the North Pole being the South pole.
