“…Secondly, there would be no magnetic signal from an infinitely (= sufficiently compared to the size of the gradiometer) long object, providing it is magnetically uniform, independently whether it moves or not and what kind of magnetic response dominates its properties. Practically, anything of a length of [15][16][17][18][19][20] cm what allows to fix the sample close to its center and has got an adaptor connecting it with the main (long) sample rod will work for sensitive magnetometry, however, the least 'magnetic', the better. The MPMS XL system manufacturer advices to use clear drinking straws as sample holders.…”
