Modelling geomagnetically induced currents in midlatitude Central Europe using a thin-sheet approach [PDF]
Geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) in power systems, which can lead to transformer damage over the short and the long term, are a result of space weather events and geomagnetic variations. For a long time, only high-latitude areas were considered to

Geomagnetically induced current (GIC) has been a significant concern for the electrical power grid in high latitudes for decades. Its origin starts in the Sun; during extreme space weather, the magnetic field of the Earth varies rapidly.

Forward modeling of magnetotellurics using Comsol Multiphysics
Magnetotellurics is an electromagnetic geophysical method that has been widely used to study structures in Earth's subsurface. Numerical modeling of magnetotellurics is important for survey design, inversion, geological interpretation and many other ...

Sensitivity of geomagnetically induced currents to varying auroral electrojet and conductivity models [PDF]
Geomagnetically induced currents (GIC) are created by the interaction of rapid changes in the magnitude of the magnetic field with the conductive subsurface of the Earth.

The First Archaeomagnetic Age at Tiwanaku and Implications for Dating Andean Metallurgical Furnaces
ABSTRACT This paper presents the first archaeomagnetic dating at Tiwanaku (Andean Altiplano). We compared the geomagnetic field values recorded by a metallurgical furnace against an updated SHAWQ2k‐SH global model and a regional intensity curve, both of which include, for the first time, high‐quality intensity data from the Southern Hemisphere. Results

Applying inversion techniques to derive source currents and geoelectric fields for geomagnetically induced current calculations [PDF]
This research focuses on the inversion of geomagnetic variation field measurement to obtain source currents in the ionosphere. During a geomagnetic disturbance, the ionospheric currents create magnetic field variations that induce geoelectric fields ...

A 3-Phase Current Transducer based on microfluxgate sensors [PDF]
Novel 3-phase DC/AC current transducer for 3-phase current lines is based on 8 integrated fluxgate sensors. Using full information from each sensor rather than gradiometric pairs, we suppress crosstalk between individual phases and external magnetic ...

Geomagnetically induced currents in Europe
Statistics of geomagnetically induced currents (GIC) in the European high-voltage power grids based on 1-min geomagnetic recordings in 1996–2008 and on 1-D models of the ground conductivity have been derived in the EURISGIC project (European Risk from Geomagnetically Induced Currents).

A supramolecular assembly of cone‐specific G‐protein and cryptochrome 4a on lipid bilayer
Immobilized phospholipid bilayers on a sensor chip surface serve as membrane platform to investigate critical protein–lipid and protein–protein interaction processes by surface plasmon resonance. The putative magnetoreceptor cryptochrome 4a and the myristoylated cone‐specific G‐protein α‐subunit (Gtα) bind with high affinity to immobilized lipid ...

HV Transformer Protection and Stabilization under Geomagnetically Induced Currents
This paper presents the results of research related to the issues arising from DC excitation of power transformers due to geomagnetically induced currents (GIC). First, the GIC phenomena and their influence on power system operation are discussed.
