Summary

A MOVING-SAMPLE SUSCEPTOMETER BASED ON A HARTSHORN INDUCTANCE MAKES IT POSSIBLE TO MEASURE MAGNETIC SUSCEPTIBILITY AS A FUNCTION OF TEMPERATURE. THE LOWER LIMIT OF DETECTION IS APPROXIMATELY 50 PARTS PER MILLION OF POWDERED YBACUO(X) SUPERCONDUCTOR CONTAINED IN A 5 MILLIGRAM SAMPLE. MEASUREMENTS CAN BE CONDUCTED IN THE 4.2-300 K TEMPERATURE RANGE. THE APPARATUS CAN BE BUILT INEXPENSIVELY OF COMMONLY AVAILABLE PARTS. CONSTRUCTION, OPERATION, AND POSSIBLE APPLICATIONS ARE DISCUSSED.
