Scientific paper

Magnetic investigations play an important role in studies on the constitution of planetary interiors. One of these techniques (the so-called Jacobs' formulation), appropriately modified, has been applied to the case of Mercury. According to the results found, the planet, supposed to be divided internally as the earth (crust-mantle-core), would have a core/planet volume ratio of 28 percent, much greater than the earth's core percentage (16 percent). This result is in agreement with previous work which used other independent methods.
