Remarks / Special Instructions (if any):

Description : The spinner magnetometer is used for measuring the remanenent magnetization in sediments, soil and rock samples. The instruments operate by rotating a rock specimen at a constant angular speed in the pick-up unit inside a pair of Helmholtz coils. Inside the coils an AC voltage is induced whose amplitude and phase depend on the magnitude and direction of the remanent magnetization vector
