VAN NORMAN LAKE MAGNETOMETER FACILITY,

Abstract

The report discusses the design and operation of a triaxial magnetometer facility developed for the Aerospace Corporation solar observatory at Van Norman Lake, California. Magnetometer sensors and associated electronics measure three components of the geomagnetic field. Fluctuations of the field (plus or minus 100 gamma) are recorded on a continuous basis at a recorder sensitivity of 2 gamma/mm. (Author)
