Abstract
The centred dipole geomagnetic poles and the eccentric dipole geomagnetic poles are established mathematical entities (Chapman and Bartels 1940). Here the related concept of the "auroral" poles is outlined. The relationship of the auroral pole to the maximum iso-aurore of the auroral zone as well as to the instantaneous auroral belt is indicated.Keywords
