Scientific paper

A method of calculating the shape and position of the geomagnetic hollow, taking into account centrifugal effects in the flow of plasma round the hollow, is considered. Comparison is made with the results of Chapman and Kendall (1961), who investigated a cylindrical sheet problem in which centrifugal effects are also present, and with the hollow calculated by Beard (1960), who assumed specular reflection of the plasma. In view of recent satellite results indicating an outward flaring of the magnetopause surface on the night side of the earth, it is suggested that centrifugal effects should be included in further three-dimensional calculations of the hollow.
