Dear Spinlanders,
One of the faculty who is a major user of the NMR facility here has
recently had a pace maker installed. This individual has his lab
space directly over the NMR facility and is concerned (as are we)
about where the 5 gauss lines lie. I mapped the field lines back in
April using a hand held gauss meter (as well as the 2 pfenig coin
test - incidently Canadian quarters work as well) and developed a
pretty good picture of where the field lines are. This was necessary
as this faculty member had a computer room situated directly over
our new 600 wide bore magnet.
What I would like to know is if anyone has any information on any
commercial labs or organizations which map field lines. We would like
to have an independent assesment of the field lines for everyones
safety and comfort. I would be happy to post a summary of replies.
Thank you for your support.
Greg
