A Gamma-Level Portable Ring-Core Magnetometer

Author

Stanley V. Marshall, Missouri University of Science and Technology

Abstract

Using a ring-core sensor and a bridge-type peak detector, a compact low-power consumption fluxgate magnetometer of gamma-level sensitivity has been designed which uses commercial tape-wound cores. The magnetometer is of the unbalanced type as contrasted to the 2nd-harmonic type and has a total power consumption of 44 mW with an output sensitivity in excess of 0.004 volts per gamma. © 1970, IEEE.
