Abstract:

A triaxial SQUID magnetometer system has been proposed for use in a submarine towed ELF receiving antenna system. This report describes the testing of the magnetometer system to determine the magnetic orthogonality among the channels of the system, the instrument noise level and responsivity. The other parameters of the system, mostly electrical in nature, had been determined previously. Author
