A Fluxgate Magnetometer is a scientific instrument used to measure the strength and direction of magnetic fields. It operates by detecting changes in magnetic flux using a core made of ferromagnetic material. When an external magnetic field is present, it alters the magnetic state of the core, allowing the device to measure the field's intensity and orientation accurately. These magnetometers are widely used in various applications, including geophysical surveys, space exploration, and environmental monitoring. They are particularly valuable in studying the Earth's magnetic field and detecting anomalies, which can provide insights into geological formations and help in navigation systems.
