Abstract

The influence of different types of thermal magnetic treatment of ferroprobe cores made of the Fe73.5Cu1Nb3Si13.5B9 nanocrystalline alloy on the characteristics of primary transducers of a drill-hole magnetometer has been studied. The informative parameters of the Barkhausen effect (a stepwise change in the magnetization of a material) were used to monitor the quality of the cores. Thermal magnetic treatment in a high-frequency magnetic field has been shown to be the optimum treatment for decreasing the sensitivity threshold of a magnetometer, whereas thermal magnetic treatment in a constant magnetic field is the optimum method for improving the operational characteristics of a magnetometer.
