Abstract
AbstractA superconducting tangent galvanometer suitable for the measurement of thermoelectric voltages in circuits of resistance about 10−7 ohm is described. The inductance has been kept low by the use of only a single turn in each of the deflecting coils, but a high sensitivity has been attained by reducing the controlling field to about 0·01 gauss. The theory of operation of such a galvanometer in circuits of low resistance is discussed; the actual behaviour of the instrument is in satisfactory agreement with the theory. The galvanometer will detect a current of 10−5 A. corresponding to an e.m.f. of 10−12 V.
