Abstract
We examine the problem of measuring with a probe the magnetic field in a plasma which is moving with respect to the probe. It is shown that integration with respect to time is, in general, not proper and we develop correct expressions for the case of a current conducting plasma produced by a strong ionizing shock wave in an electromagnetically driven shock tube. Use of the correct expressions is described for large area magnetic field probes employed in a coaxial electromagnetic shock tube. The results demonstrate the need for careful interpretation of data obtained from magnetic field probes used to measure magnetic fields in moving media.
