“…The resonance is stronger with higher pulsed fields, resulting in the lower signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). This problem was already pointed out by Likhite et al (1985) who was forced to limit the pulse peak <0.6 T due to the imbalance of pick-up coil caused by "ringing" of the coil system. In the same way, because a slight failure of the coil compensation contributes to greater reduction of the SNR, we found that the maximum peak of a pulse was set to 0.7 T in this study.…”

“…The IRM unmixing analysis has become a conventional tool for the quantitative characterization of magnetic minerals (Kruiver et al 2001;Heslop et al 2002;Egli 2004;Abrajevitch and Kodama 2011). However, the measurement of dynamic magnetizations in pulsed fields has been paid little attention except the pioneering work by Radhakrishnamurthy and Likhite (1987) who obtained hysteresis parameters from a set of synthetic and basalt samples using a laboratory-made PFM system (Likhite et al 1985). They compared the results both at room and low temperature (77 K), suggesting that the latter provided a better estimate of the composition and domain state.…”

An improved method is proposed for measuring dynamic magnetizations of bulk volcanic rock samples induced by a pulsed-field of 0.7 T and a duration of 10 ms. The transient magnetization is measured by a sensing system that consists of a pair of inductive differential coils, an analog preamplifier and integrator, and a high-speed digital storage scope. The system was calibrated using a paramagnetic salt (Gd 2 O 3 ) and was tested to different kinds of volcanic rocks with their magnetic properties well-documented previously. The results were comparable with those measured by a quasi-static method using a vibrating sample magnetometer, although there were small discrepancies in hysteresis parameters suggesting the time-dependence of the magnetic properties. The proposed system provides not only the magnetization over the short interval of a pulse but also the rapid (~3 ms) exponential decay after a pulse. The decay time constant was different among the samples under study, indicating the variations of their magnetic relaxation time. Although the present system is not sensitive enough to characterize varieties of natural samples including sediments, it has the potential as a versatile and convenient tool for rock magnetism.
