Concept information
TERME PRÉFÉRENTIEL
MMS SCM
DÉFINITION
- The Search Coil Magnetometer provides direct measurements of changes in the magnetic fields, using something called an induction magnetometer. The magnetometer contains a coil of wire around a ferromagnetic material. It is a basic law of physics that a changing magnetic field near such a coil will induce a voltage. This voltage, in turn, can be used to measure how the magnetic field changes. The SCM was developed at the Laboratory for Plasma Physics in Paris, France.
