Magnetometry
The determination of the magnetic moment of a magnet.
It involves the determination by experiment of–( a) the product of the
magnetic moment, M, of the magnet by the horizontal component, H, of the
earth’s magnetism; (b) the quotient of M divided by H. Knowing these two
quantities, M is given by the formula M = SquareRoot( )M * [...]
