  2. Aeromagnetic survey - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeromagnetic_survey

    The principle is similar to a magnetic survey carried out with a hand-held magnetometer, but allows much larger areas of the Earth's surface to be covered quickly for regional reconnaissance. The aircraft typically flies in a grid-like pattern with height and line spacing determining the resolution of the data (and cost of the survey per unit ...

  3. Electronic article surveillance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_article...

    Except for permanent tags, this strip is also lined with a strip of ferromagnetic material with a moderate coercive field (magnetic "hardness"). Detection is achieved by sensing harmonics and sum or difference signals generated by the non-linear magnetic response of the material under a mixture of low-frequency (in the 10 Hz to 1000 Hz range ...

  4. Magnetic field viewing film - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_field_viewing_film

    The poles are dark, and pole edges are bright. Magnetic field viewing film is used to show stationary or (less often) slowly changing magnetic fields ; it shows their location and direction. It is a translucent thin flexible sheet, coated with micro-capsules containing nickel flakes suspended in oil. [ 1 ]

  5. Magnetic particle inspection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_particle_inspection

    Magnetic yoke is a hand-held device that induces a magnetic field between two poles. Common applications are for outdoor use, remote locations, and weld inspection. The drawback of magnetic yokes is that they only induce a magnetic field between the poles, so large-scale inspections using the device can be time-consuming.

    The magnetic zenith effect, that airglow excited by heated electrons becomes much stronger when at the magnetic zenith (the direction of magnetic field). [ 16 ] ~100 Rayleighs in O(1 S) 557.7 nm and O(1 D) 630 nm, the main spectral lines in aurora airglows.

  7. Cost Of Adding Metal Detectors To Subway Stations In NYC - AOL

    www.aol.com/cost-adding-metal-detectors-subway...

    So, what would it cost to add metal detectors? Each metal detecting machine costs about $2,200, and the city would need four turnstiles per station. That adds up to $8,800.

  8. IceCube Neutrino Observatory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IceCube_Neutrino_Observatory

    The IceTop array is a series of Cherenkov detectors on the surface of the glacier, with two detectors approximately above each IceCube string. IceTop is used as a cosmic ray shower detector, for cosmic ray composition studies and coincident event tests: if a muon is observed going through IceTop, it cannot be from a neutrino interacting in the ice.

  9. Magnetic flux leakage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_flux_leakage

    The basic principle is that the magnetic field "leaks" from the steel at areas where there is corrosion or missing metal. To magnetize the steel, a powerful magnet is used. In an MFL (or Magnetic Flux Leakage) tool, a magnetic detector is placed between the poles of the magnet to detect the leakage field. Analysts interpret the chart recording ...
