A vibrating-sample magnetometer (VSM) (also referred to as a Foner magnetometer) is a scientific instrument that measures magnetic properties based on Faraday’s Law of Induction. Simon Foner at MIT Lincoln Laboratory invented VSM in 1955 and reported it in 1959. [1] Also it was mentioned by G.W. Van Oosterhout [2] and by P.J Flanders in 1956. [3]
Electromagnetic or magnetic induction is the production of an electromotive force (emf) across an electrical conductor in a changing magnetic field. Michael Faraday is generally credited with the discovery of induction in 1831, and James Clerk Maxwell mathematically described it as Faraday's law of induction .

Visualization of Eddy Currents Induction [3] In its most basic form — the single-element ECT probe — a coil of conductive wire is excited with an alternating electric current. This wire coil produces an alternating magnetic field around itself. The magnetic field oscillates at the same frequency as the current running through the coil.
An inductive sensor is a device that uses the principle of electromagnetic induction to detect or measure objects. An inductor develops a magnetic field when an electric current flows through it; alternatively, a current will flow through a circuit containing an inductor when the magnetic field through it changes. This effect can be used to ...
Component of Stirling radioisotope generator is heated by induction during testing. Induction heating is the process of heating electrically conductive materials, namely metals or semi-conductors, by electromagnetic induction, through heat transfer passing through an inductor that creates an electromagnetic field within the coil to heat up and possibly melt steel, copper, brass, graphite, gold ...
B is the magnetic induction, Idℓ is an element of the current, the constant μ 0 is the permeability of free space, and r is the distance between the current and the sensor. As a result, the current can be directly calculated from the magnetic field knowing only the separation between the current and the magnetic field sensor.
The magnetic field strength depends on the magnitude of tghe electric current, and therefore follows any changes in the magnitude of the current. From Faraday's law of induction, any change in magnetic field through a circuit induces an electromotive force (EMF) in the conductors, a process known as electromagnetic induction. This induced ...
