Welcome to the first edition of the Metrolab electronic newsletter.
For those who don't know us: Metrolab is the world leader for high
precision magnetic field measurements. Twice a year, we want to inform you of our new developments, to show you
solution examples, and to introduce some of the fascinating projects
our customers are working on. We aim to make this a professional
quality publication of general interest to anyone working in magnetics.
Of course the "Unsubscribe" option is always available… but I hope we
can convince you not to use it!

NeuroSpin pushes back the limits of MRI: 11.7 teslas forunderstandingthe human brain!
It's a world premiere: the NeuroSpin centre at Saclay (France), dedicated to studying the functioning of the human brain using MRI, is aiming to possess an 11.7 T magnet by 2011. This is a major technological challenge that is mobilising the CEA's finest specialists in liaison with companies such as Siemens, Alstom… and Metrolab. Here's an update. Read on
Hall probe, fluxmeter, NMR... Field
mapping: one size
does not fit all
Many researchers, engineers
and technicians dealing with
magnetic field mapping are
not aware of the variety of
technologies available. From
particle accelerators to the
automobile industry, the
problems vary widely
depending on the type of field measured and the precision required. Fortunately, a suitable,
reliable solution can be found for (almost) all situations. A brief review
of the state of the art. Read on
PM1055
Permanent magnets
An absolutely unique performance-to-size ratio! With Metrolab’s PM1055
permanent magnet range,
scientists now have access to an
ultra-compact solution for
calibrating Hall probes with a
high level of precision. With a
side opening wide enough to
insert an NMR probe, each
PM1055 can even be turned into
a real secondary field reference…
that fits into the palm of your
hand! Read on
