Abstract

Small magnetic probes for use in a collisionless shock experiment have been constructed. The method of building the coil, connecting it to the oscilloscope, shielding and enclosing the probe, calibration, and testing of the time response with a fast square wave pulse and a sampling oscilloscope are described. These probes, with response times of <or=2 ns, have been used to measure correspondingly fast disturbances in an oblique shock wave.
