| Type of experiment | 4 spherical probes covered with vitreous carbon were placed at the ends of 4.5-m booms to serve as the sensors. A triaxial fluxgate magnetometer with a frequency-dependent feedback loop was employed as the sensor for the frequency range of 0.2 to 6.5 Hz while a search-coil magnetometer was used for the high frequency range. |
