FRAGMENT FROM NATURE for this and next weekend focuses on cosmic magnetic forces, and some of the astonishingly strong sources of this pervasive field. Here is a thumbnail primer on the enormous relative magnitude of the values (in G Gauss) you will see: Earth 0.6 G, Jupiter 10 G, Small permanent magnet 100 G, Ap Bp stars to 25,000 G, Strong electromagnets 10,000,000, Magnetic white dwarfs to 30,000,000,000 G.
