The Use of Spherical Pole Pieces for Performing the Faraday Balance Method

Abstract

The possibility of using spherically shaped pole pieces to perform the Faraday balance method for measuring the magnetic susceptibility of samples is considered. The families of the coordinate characteristics of the magnetic induction between the pole pieces have been obtained experimentally. The position of the working region (the place for positioning the sample) has been determined: it is located in the vicinity of the inflection point of the induction characteristic or the extreme point of the gradient characteristic. It has been established that the position of the inflection point does not depend on the current load of the winding.
