Disregarding seismology and changes in the length-of-day, geomagnetism
provides our only means of probing the deep interior of the Earth. In
principle, geomagnetic data can tell us about the conductivity profile of
the mantle, the radius and shape of the core, and about motions within the
core. There are a few problems to be sorted out first.
