English Abstract
In this work, the statistical distributions of the simulated main part of the magnetic field components of our solar planets are studied.
It was noticed that there is asymmetric behavior in the statistical distribution of all field components of the Earth.
Around %0.5 of Earth area have negative orientation in the north component they located near the poles.
More than %95 of Earth area shows magnetic deflection angle that is less than 35o.
The dynamic range of magnetic field is nearly [23000, 68000] nT, the statistical distribution of the magnetic field shows a tendency around 4 peak values.
The statistical parameters indicate that there is a tendency toward the positive values in deflection angles and toward negative values in inclination angle.
The spatial variations of all the components of the planet Mercury are slow.
The statistical distribution of the field magnitude of Mercury shows high tendency toward the lower values.
Around %0.09 of Mercury's area have negative orientation in the north component.
There is asymmetric behavior in the statistical distribution of all field components of Jupiter.
The dynamic range of the magnetic field of Jupiter is nearly [297350, 852580] nT, the statistical distribution of the field magnitude shows a tendency around 3 peak values.
Around %97 of Jupiter area have negative orientation in the north component.
Also, the statistical parameters indicate that there is a tendency toward the negative values in inclination angle.
The distribution of Saturn shows highly axisymmetric dipolar field with zero declination.
The statistical distribution of the field magnitude of Saturn shows high tendency toward the lower values.
The statistical distribution of north component shows that Saturn has negative orientation.
The spatial variations of all the components of both Uranus and Neptune revealed complicated field morphology.
It was noticed that these two planets have Create PDF files without this message by purchasing novaPDF printer (http://www.novapdf.com) 6 magnetic poles.
The statistical distribution of the field magnitude of the two planets shows high tendency toward the lower values.
The declination and inclination angles of Uranus shows tendency toward the negative values.
Also, the inclination angle of Neptune shows tendency toward the negative values.
Around %72 of Uranus's area and %58 of Neptune's area have negative orientation in the north component.
