Hi Fred,

Good introductory article, but I suspect the author was
just googling for data after looking at the freq. ranges
listed for the various detector modalities. Many seem way
too high for commercial devices ( can you find me a commercial hall
effect device that's good to better than 100KHz? ) others
too low for theoretical capability ( proton precession 
doesn't _have_ to be limited to 2 hz, it's a design
consideration. ) I was very hopeful with the new
magnetoresistive devices that we could see commercial
devices in the MHz range, but the linearity sucks so
you end up with something only really good for square
wave/counter sensing. 

Is anyone aware of a commercial H field sensor that can
see from DC into the MHz range, that's reasonably linear?
Tek sort of solved this problem by making mixed mode
detectors, using hall for the low freq. and a coil for
the RF.

K.

Very lucid article.

The Proton Precession Magnetometer is of particular interest.
