MS2 Magnetic Susceptibility System
The MS2 system comprises a meter together with one of a wide range of individually calibrated sensors for measuring the magnetic susceptibility of soils and rocks in both the field and laboratory. It is the international standard for magnetic susceptibility measurements in environmental sciences.
Applications include geological and soil surveys, palaeomagnetics, archaeological prospecting, palaeoclimatic studies, hydrology, sedimentology, core logging/correlation, and magnetic fabric analysis.
The MS2 is a versatile system offering high resolution and accuracy, excellent temperature stability and very low measurement drift. It provides non destructive measurements and has a low operating frequency so measurements are not affected by sample conductivity. Readings are taken in around 1 second.
Applications include geological and soil surveys, palaeomagnetics, archaeological prospecting, palaeoclimatic studies, hydrology, sedimentology, core logging/correlation, and magnetic fabric analysis.
The MS2 system has been extensively used for many years in widely varying areas of research.
