EQUIPMENT FOR MEASUREMENT OF MAGNETIC FIELD VARIATIONS FOR DASA PROJECT 6.5A,

Abstract

Magnetometers were constructed for the purpose of instrumenting two field magnetic and telluric observatories. The purpose of these observatories, established and operated in the Pacific area, was to measure and record geomagnetic phenomena corresponding to the high-altitude nuclear test series in 1962. The stations were manned and data was successfully taken for all events specified to be of interest by the contract monitor. (Author)
