A full mathematical treatment considers all the factors involved, including the optical systems and the correction of errors and irregularities. Of particular interest is a temperature-compensation technique for variometers using a new alloy, called calmalloy (or "kalmalloy"), in which a plate of Mi-Cu-Fe is superposed directly on the magnet system. The permeability of the calmalloy falls with the rising temperature and the plate develops the compensatory setion of an armeture which, by closing the magnetic flux, decreases the magnetic moment of the system. The calmalloy Card 1/3 The Theory of Magnetic Variometers 37-12 -6/12. plate was first used by B. M. Yanovskiy. Its main advantage over other available systems is that it will compensate for changes in temperature under any condition within the given temperature range. Furthermore, the calmalloy plate, being placed directly above the magnet system, has a smaller thermal inertia than that of the system of suspended magnets. In the latter system the suspended magnets are kept at some distance from the magnet of the variometer and thus differ from it in temperature. The disadvantage of the use of the calmalloy plate as a compensating agent lies in the differences in the composition of the alloy, i.e., the different percentages of its three main ingredients (MI, Cu and Fe). Consequently, the main drawback in the use of the instrument equipped with a calmalloy plate is the need to adjust the instrument in advance, if the calmalloy plate is to respond accurately to fluctuations in temperature. The adjustment is done with a view to the range of temperature fluctuations in each particular area where the variometer will be used; without these preliminary adjust- ments the accuracy of the compensation would be distorted. After weighing the pros and cons of the use of a calmalloy plate for temperature compensa- tion, the conclusion is drawn that compensation by calmalloy is simpler Card 2/3 37-12(-6/12 The Theory of Magnetic Variometers than compensation by suspended magnets. The author of the article sees no value in the use of permalloy or perminvar for similar purposes. V. N. Bobrov, a member of the staff of the Irkutsk magnetic observatory, is mentioned. The article is accompanied by 22 drawings, 5 tables, and 11 references, of which 9 are Russian.

M. 20-118-6-16/43 438 TITLE : On the Structure of the Diurnal Course of Magnetic Activity (O strukture sutochnogo khoda magnitnoy aktivnosti) . 'PERIODICAL: Doklady Akademii Nauk SSSR, 1958, Vol. 118, Nr 6, pp. 1109-1112 (USSR) ABSTRACT : The present paper uses the 5-year-old data on the diurnal course Sa of the magnetic activity of 34 observatories on the northern and 7 observatories on the southern hemisphere. The author investigates here the problem of the structure of Sa and of the nature of its natural components. Here the relation Sa = S' (t) + S"(T) is assumed, whereby t denotes the local time and T = t + 7 the world time. The corpuscular currents which cause the magnetic disturbances move first according to the laws of the theory of Chapman (Chepmen)- -Ferraro, and then in the trajectories of Stormer (Shtermer). A relation for the lower boundaries of the width of the zone in which the particles are deposited is written down. First it is shortly reported on a process for the determination of Card 1/3 the semiannual component of the activity. As the harmonic analysis shows, the differences Sa - S" are well determined On the Structure of the Diurnal Course of Magnetic Activity 20-118-6-16/43 by the first term of the Fourier series, similar to S". The initial phases Q of the first harmonics of the curves Sa - - S" are illustrated in a further diagram. Then a formula for tgy is written down. A further component exists with respect to world time which is here denoted by S". The amplitudes and the phases of the first harmonics S' (t) = S. - S" - S" are illustrated here in a diagram. The data given here speak in favor of the existence of two types of S'; the one (with a maximum at approximatively noon) predominates near the magnetic equator, and the second (with a maximum at approximat- ively midnight) predominates near the zone of aurorae polaris. The function S' can therefore be written down as follows: S' (t)- = Roos(t-}) = a($)cos(t -a) + b(6)cos(t - 3). The authors assumed here &= 0, which is confirmed by the data of different seasons and the data of calm days. For the determination of the values of 3 the author used the values concerning the daily alterations of the sudden commencement sc of the magnetic storm. The nature of the component S" is obviously determined by the influence of the rotation of the magnetic axis on the position of the traces of the main directions of incidence in the atmosphere. There are 3 figures, 1 table, and 12 references, 5 of which are Soviet. Card 2/3 On the Structure of the Diurnal Course of Magnetic Activity 20-118-6-16/43 v.
