Abstract
Magnetic resonance relaxometry, conducted by measuring relaxation parameters at different field strengths, has become an increasingly popular technique in recent years. This technique, known as field cycling, often uses expensive and large electromagnets. In this work we present a small, portable field cycling sensor. Fast field cycling is a technique that uses a varying magnetic field applied to a sample, polarising it at a high field, allowing it time to develop at a lower field and then collecting the data at the same initial high field. This causes changes in T1 and can reveal interesting proper ties of the samples not seen by traditional methods. A prototype portable magnetic resonance sensor that undertakes relaxometry measurements using fast field
cycling has been developed using a combination of permanent magnets which has been used to conduct preliminary studies on a water sample. We demonstrate the effectiveness of this sensor by conducting measurements of T1 at different field strengths.
