We have previously reported a study on brain activity detection in occipital region using a picotesla-scale MagnetoImpedance (MI) sensor. Based on past studies, the target of the present study was to review the performance of MI sensor on parietal region brain activity detection. Human brain magnetic field is extremely weak, in order to detect the faint magnetic field, we constructed an MI meas...

The measurement of magnetic field strengths in the solar corona using radio observations is reviewed. This is a well established technique that exploits the fact that the electron gyrofrequency for typical coronal magnetic field strengths (100–2000 Gauss) lies in the radio frequency range. Opacity from the resulting gyroresonance emission from hot plasma above active regions allows the direct m...

In this work, we report on our studies on the multiferroic properties of two rare earth chromates, GdCrO3 and YCrO3. Polycrystalline bulks and thin films have been fabricated using conventional solid state reaction and pulsed laser deposition. Magnetic measurements have revealed that both compounds show weak ferromagnetism below the antiferromagnetic Neel temperature, TN, of 170 and 140 K for G...

Magnetism dominates the structure and dynamics of the solar corona. Current theories suggest that it may also be responsible for coronal heating. Despite the importance of the magnetic field in the physics of the corona and despite the tremendous progress made recently in the remote sensing of solar magnetic fields, reliable measurements of the coronal magnetic field strength and orientation do...

In large machines, vibration is one of the important parameters used for fault diagnosis as well as for monitoring the overall conditions of the machines. The conventional methods give a poor resolution of the measurement, missing the peak values of the vibrations, which is an important

A localized and strong RF magnetic field, created by a magnetic write head, is used to examine the linear electrodynamic properties of a Nb superconducting film. The complex reflection coefficient of the write head held in close proximity to the films is measured as a function of sample temperature. A model combining a magnetic circuit (magnetic write head inductively coupled to the sample) and...

In this paper we present an Earth magnetic field measurement system and an automated acquisition setup to characterize it. The measurement system consists of a fluxgate sensor and an integrated front-end circuit, both realized in CMOS technology. The couple of orthogonal axes of the sensor makes the system suitable for realizing an electronic compass device. Indeed, we can measure not only the ...

background: magnetic nanoparticles in a variable magnetic field are able to produce heat. this heat (42-45°c) has more selective effect on fast dividing cancer cells than normal tissues. methods: in this work magnetite nanoparticles have been prepared via co-precipitation and phase identification was performed by powder x-ray diffraction (xrd). magnetic parameters of the prepared nanoparticles ...
