  abstract = {{T}he dynamics of fluctuations in a fast rotating spherical {C}ouette flow experiment in the presence of a strong dipolar magnetic field is investigated in detail, through a thorough analysis of the experimental data as well as a numerical study. {F}luctuations within the conducting fluid (liquid sodium) are characterized by the presence of several oscillation modes, identified as magneto-{C}oriolis ({MC}) modes, with definite symmetry and azimuthal number. {A} numerical simulation provides eigensolutions which exhibit oscillation frequencies and magnetic signatures comparable to the observation. {T}he main characteristics of these hydromagnetic modes is that the magnetic contribution has a fundamental influence on the dynamical properties through the {L}orentz forces, although its importance remains weak in an energetical point of view. {A}nother specificity is that the {L}orentz forces are confined near the inner sphere where the dipolar magnetic field is the strongest, while the {C}oriolis forces are concentrated in the outer fluid volume close to the outer sphere.},
