Method for Defining Position of Magnetic Field Lines

The method described was developed during experiments on Alfven wave propagation. It was necessary to be sure that the hydromagnetic waveguide-was accurately aligned with a uniform axial field. Tests indicate that the method would be valuable for use with various complex magneticfield geometries tha...

Description
Summary:The method described was developed during experiments on Alfven wave propagation. It was necessary to be sure that the hydromagnetic waveguide-was accurately aligned with a uniform axial field. Tests indicate that the method would be valuable for use with various complex magneticfield geometries that have been proposed for controlled thermonuclear heating. (B.O.G.)
