Extract

In [1] and [2] the flow of a conducting fluid past a magnetized sphere was considered. The magnetic distribution was an arbitrary axially symmetric one. The magnetic field, velocity, vorticity and drag were evaluated for the particular case of a dipole field when the dipole was in the free stream flow direction. Astronomically the more interesting case is that in which the dipole is perpendicular to the free stream flow. The axially symmetric nature of the problem is thereby lost.
