TIE: The Theory of Magnetic Varivmeters (Teoriya itnykh i var atsionnykh priborov) PERIODICAL: Trudy nauchno-issledovatel'skogo instituta zemnogo magneti a ionosfery i rasprostraueniya radiovoln, 1957, Nr 12 (22),, pp. 91-182 (USSR) ABSTRACT: The article discusses the general theory of interaction of a magnetic field with permanent magnets, resulting in the con-.' strnction of universal bi-filar variometers and magnetic balances. A full mathematical treatment considers all the factors involved, including the optical systems and the correction of errors and irregularities. Of particulpr Est is a temperature-compensation technique for vaxivmeters using a new alloy, called calmal.loy (or "kkalmailoy"), in which a plate of Iii-Cu-Fe is superposed directly on the magnet system. The permeability of the calmalloy falls with the rising temperature and the plate develops the compensatory action of an armature which, by closing the magnetic flux, decreases the magnetic moment of the system. The calmral.loy Card 1/3 The Theory of Magnetic Variamieters 37-12 '-6/12 plate was first used by B. M. Ianovskiy. Its main atage over other available systems is that it will compensate for changes in temperature under any condition within the given temperature range. Furthermore, the calmalloy plate, being placed directly above the magnet system has a. smaller thermal inertia than that of the system of suspended magnets. In the latter system the suspended magnets are kept at some distance from the magnet of the variometer and thus differ from it in temperature. ft e disadvantage of the use of the calmalloy plate as a compensating agent lies in the differences in the exposition of the alloy, i.e. the different percentages of its three main ingredients (Ni, Cu and Fe).. Consequesitl, the main drawback in the use of the instrument equipped with a.., plate is the.. reed to adjust the instrument in adivance, if the 'c lahalloy' plate it-to respond. ae r tte to hiketuatic s in temperature. The adjustment is done With a view to the range of temperature fluctuations in each particular area where the variometer will, be used; without these preliminary adjust- ments the accuracy of the compensation would be distorted. After weighing the pros and cons of the use of a calmalloy plate for temperature compensa- tion, the conclusion is drawn that compensation by calmalloy is simpler Card 2/3 The Theory of Magnetic VSricmteters 37-12 .6f12. than compensation by suspended magnets.

TITLE: On the Structure of the Diurnal Course of Magnetic Activity (0 atrukture sutoohnogo khoda magnitnoy aktivnosti) PERIODICAL: Doklady Akademii Nauk SSSR, 1958, Vol. 118, Nr 6, pp. 1109-1112 (USSR) ABSTRACT: The present paper uses the 5_year-old data on the diurnal course Sa of the magnetic activity of 34 observatories on the northern and 7.observatories on the southern hemisphere. The author investigates here the problem of the structure of Sa and of the nature of its natural components. Here the relation Sa - St(t) + S"(T) is assumed, whereby. t denotes the local time and T - t + 7 the world time. The' corpuscular currents which cause the magnetic disturbances move first according to the laws of the theory of Chapman (Chepmen)- -Ferraro, and then in the trajectories of Stormer (Shtermer). A relation for the lower boundaries of the width of the zone in'which the particles are deposited is written down. First it is shortly reported on a process for the determination of the semiannual component of the activ ty.
