متن کاملInvestigation of the intrinsic sensitivity of a He/Cs magnetometer
We report on extensive studies on the intrinsic sensitivity of a combined He/Cs magnetometer. The magnetometer relies on the detection of the free spin precession of nuclear spin polarized He by optically pumped cesium magnetometers. We characterize the relevant processes involved in the detection and quantify their impact on the total sensitivity of the magnetometer. An expression is derived t...
متن کاملReal Time Calibration of Strap-down Three-Axis-Magnetometer for Attitude Estimation
Three-axis-magnetometers (TAMs) are widely utilized as a key component of attitude determination subsystems and as such are considered the corner stone of navigation for low Earth orbiting (LEO) space systems. Precise geomagnetic-based navigation demands accurate calibration of the magnetometers. In this regard, a complete online calibration process of TAM is developed in the current research t...
متن کاملDesign and performance of an absolute He/Cs magnetometer
We report on the design and performance of a highly sensitive combined He/Cs magnetometer for the absolute measurement of magnetic fields. The magnetometer relies on the magnetometric detection of the free spin precession of nuclear spin polarized He gas by optically pumped cesium magnetometers. We plan to deploy this type of combined magnetometer in an experiment searching for a permanent elec...
متن کاملHigh Sensitivity Optically Pumped Quantum Magnetometer
Quantum magnetometers based on optical pumping can achieve sensitivity as high as what SQUID-based devices can attain. In this paper, we discuss the principle of operation and the optimal design of an optically pumped quantum magnetometer. The ultimate intrinsic sensitivity is calculated showing that optimal performance of the magnetometer is attained with an optical pump power of 20 μW and an ...
