Appendix 3. Anisotropy of Magnetic Susceptibility Measurements (AMS)

For accurate measurements of AMS it is necessary to use the MS2B sensor in conjunction with
the AMS adapter and AMSWIN-BAR software. These are not supplied as standard with the MS2B,
but can be purchased separately.

A3.1. Installation of the AMS Adapter

To use the AMS adapter, the tall sample platen must be removed from the MS2B and replaced
with the short one supplied with the AMSWIN-BAR kit. The MS2B platen height must then be
adjusted to centralise the sample. The procedure is described below.
A3.1.1. Changing the Platen
The stages for changing the planet are shown in Figure A3.1a-i.
1. The t
all sample platen is removed by unscrewing its retaining screw in the bottom of the
sample aperture.
