Geophysics
Geophysics is the science of physics as it applies to geology, and includes the measurement of seismic movements, geodesy, gravity, magnetism, electricity, electromagnetism, and radioactivity.

Geophysics
The ionosphere is a shell of electrons and electrically charged atoms and molecules that surrounds the Earth, stretching from a height of about 50 km to more than 1000 km.
[edit] Geophysics
The fluid core of the Earth and other planets is theorized to be a huge MHD dynamo that generates the Earth's magnetic field due to the motion of liquid iron.

In the light curve of an eclipsing binary, the deeper eclipse.
Reviews of Geophysics Also by AGU, appears 4-6 times a year, contains review articles. Aims at presentations which can be understood not just by specialists in their areas but also by scientists of other disciplines.
In geophysics, any penetration of the natural environment for scientific observation. 2. In meteorology, same as upper air observation. However, a common connotation is that of a single complete radiosonde observation. 3. = air sounding.
geo (NASA SP-7, 1965) A prefix meaning earth, as in geology, geophysics.
Since 1964 there have been two awards in most years, one for astronomy and one for geophysics.

This explanation is incomplete in that there is a lot of geophysics (structures of the solar system bodies) involved, something I don't know a whole lot on, but I think it gives you a broad overview.
