Abstract :
The results of calibration of proton, cesium, potassium and helium-cesium scalar magnetometers in the range 20-100 muT are discussed. The calibration made it possible to apply corrections to reduce the uncertainty of measurements. Experimental data were obtained using a standard calibration system designed in the D.I. Mendeleyev Metrology Institute (VNIIM).
