Abstract
Several experiments applying SQUID instrumentation to the study of diverse fields in fundamental physics are reviewed. Included from gravitational physics research are the relativity gyroscope experiment, an equivalence principle experiment and work on second generation gravitational wave detectors. Experiments studying the properties of elementary particles at rest include the He3 nuclear gyroscope, fractional electric charge detector and a magnetic monopole charge detector, where new preliminary measurements on the magnetic charge of the fractional electric charge candidates are presented. Measurements of 2e/h and h/me are included as significant contributions to the determination of the fundamental physical constants. In addition a brief description of ultra‐low magnetic field shields used in four of these experiments is given.
