Mean magnetic field lines from a simulation of Earth's core dynamics
The intensity of the field is represented by their color (yellow is the most intense).
The liquid metal of the Earth's core lies between the pink and the white spheres.
The pink sphere marks the core-mantle boundary.
The white sphere represents the solid iron inner core.
