Allgemeine Theorie des Erdmagnetismus

  • Carl Friedrich Gauss

Abstract

Zusammenfassung Der rastlose Eifer, womit man in neuerer Zeit in allen Theilen der Erdoberfläche die Richtung und Stärke der magnetischen Kraft der Erde zu erforschen strebt, ist eine um so erfreulichere Erscheinung, je sichtbarer dabei das rein wissenschaftliche Interesse hervortritt. Denn in der That, wie wichtig auch für die Schiffahrt die möglichst vollständige Kenntniss der Abweichungslinie ist, so erstreckt sich doch ihr Bedürfniss eben nicht weiter, und was darüber hinausliegt, bleibt für jene beinahe gleichgültig. Aber die Wissenschaft, wenn gleich gern auch dem materiellen Interesse förderlich, lässt sich nicht auf dieses beschränken, sondern fordert für Alle Elemente ihrer Forschung gleiche Anstrengung.
