· Outer core electrical conductivity: known from laboratory experiments: 5 105 S m-1 (Stacey & Anderson 2001). · Lowermost mantle electrical conductivity (200 m layer at the base of the mantle): unknown but has to be lower than that of the core. sm= 10 S m-1, 5 104 S m-1, 5 105 S m-1 · RMS of the radial magnetic field at the CMB: from surface magnetic field measurements: > 0.3 mT. · Viscosity of the outer core fluid close to the CMB:
­ molecular viscosity: 10-6 m2 s-1 (laboratory experiments and ab initio computations). ­ eddy viscosity: < 10-4 m2 s-1 (Buffett & Christensen 2007).

Topographic torque computation
· Aim at obtaining torque and associated effects on nutation · Strategy: ­ Establish the motion equations and boundary conditions in the fluid; ­ Compute analytically the solutions; ­ Obtain the dynamic pressure as a function of the physical parameters; ­ Determine the topographic torque. · Assessment: Comparison with Wu and Wahr (1997) who used a numerical technique
