MAGNETIC PROBES WITH NANOSECOND RESPONSE TIME FOR PLASMA EXPERIMENTS.

Small magnetic probes for use in a collisionless shock experiment have been constructed. The method of building the coil, connecting it to the oscilloscope, shielding and enclosing the probe, calibration, and testing of the time response with a fast square wave pulse and a sampling oscilloscope are described. These probes, with response times of oblique shock wave.
