Talked to Dima about the NURI magnetometer network paper. His comments:

  • The device section describes a solution without a problem. Add to the introducion:
    • need for the accurate timing
    • need to correlate signals from the different sensors
    • magnetometer has to be portable

Talked to Thad about a possibility to have a synchronously pumped scalar Mx magnetometer in the fMCG project. The advantages would be:

  • not having to cancel the field
  • no calibration
  • no 1/f electronic noise

Disadvantages:

  • spin-exchange relaxation
  • no vector sensitivity

Calculations for an Mx magnetometer built with a paraffin-coated 1cm3 cell show that it should be possible to get around 3 fT/sqrtHz per 1cm of the probe length.
