The International Real-time Magnetic Observatory Network (INTERMAGNET) is a world-wide consortium of institutes operating ground-based magnetometers recording the absolute level of the Earth's time-varying magnetic field, [2] [3] [4] to an agreed set of standards.
The Pioneer 1 however did collect data on the Van Allen belts. [2] In 1959 the Soviet "Luna 1"/Ye1.4 carried a three-component magnetometer that passed the Moon en route to a heliocentric orbit at a distance of 6,400 miles (10,300 km), but the magnetic field could not be accurately assessed. [2]
Magnetic Data Acquisition System (abbr. MAGDAS) is a system of 50 realtime magnetometers that are being deployed by Kyushu Sangyo University of Fukuoka, Japan, as part of Japan's leading contribution to International Heliophysical Year of the United Nations.
A magnetograph is a magnetometer that continuously records data over time. This data is typically represented in magnetograms. [16] Magnetometers can also be classified as "AC" if they measure fields that vary relatively rapidly in time (>100 Hz), and "DC" if they measure fields that vary only slowly (quasi-static) or are static.
MAD rear boom on P-3C The SH-60B Seahawk helicopter carries a yellow and red towed MAD array known as a "MAD bird", seen on the aft fuselage. A magnetic anomaly detector (MAD) is an instrument used to detect minute variations in the Earth's magnetic field. [1]
Granite State Fair ticket prices Fair admission: Presale admission is available at granitestatefair.com for $10 until Sept. 11. After that, the tickets, online or at fair will be $12 per person.
Magnetometer (MAG) is an instrument suite on the Juno orbiter for planet Jupiter. [1] The MAG instrument includes both the Fluxgate Magnetometer (FGM) and Advanced Stellar Compass (ASC) instruments. [1] There two sets of MAG instrument suites, and they are both positioned on the far end of three solar panel array booms.
A SQUID (superconducting quantum interference device) is a very sensitive magnetometer used to measure extremely weak magnetic fields, based on superconducting loops containing Josephson junctions. SQUIDs are sensitive enough to measure fields as low as 5×10 −18 T with a few days of averaged measurements. [ 1 ]
