Abstract

In a magnetic field measuring device, conveyed by a carrier vehicle and released from this vehicle in order to be put into action, the excitation means and the measuring means of a nuclear magnetic resonance helium magnetometer are separated. These measuring means are fixed to a body which includes devices for the transmission and exploitation of the measurements given by the measuring means, and this set is released after the exzcitation is completed while the excitation means remain fixed in the carrier vehicle. This makes it possible to fabricate smaller and lighter magnetic localizing buoys.
