The Biomagnetism measurement is required shielding effect 1/S≦1/10 −7 for using SQUID magnetometer. The superconducting shield is possible to realize ideal low magnetic noise space. But it is required to attenuate every external field inside the superconducting hollow cylinder equally. Especially, radial external field decreases gently comparison to axial field. At this time the length of cylinder needs 4.4 m for diameter 1 m to realize shielding effect 1/S≦1/10 −7 . On the other hand, it is only 2.1 m for axial field. For that reason, we devised two methods to attenuate radial field rapidly coupled with permalloy.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
