Abstract
In this paper, we study the system governing flows in the magnetic field within the earth. The system is similar to the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations. By establishing a new priori estimates and following Calderón's procedure for the Navier Stokes equations [1], we obtained, for initial data in space Lp, the global in time existence and uniqueness of weak solution of the system subject to appropriate conditions.
