Abstract

A magnetic field measuring apparatus has a magnetic field shielding apparatus including non-magnetic cylindrical members on which high-permeability sheets are located in a state of being partially overlapped with each other. The cylindrical members are located to surround an axis of a first direction concentrically and having a hollow portion, the cylindrical member located on an innermost-side having a first opening at one end of the first direction, a second opening at the other end of the first direction, and a third opening penetrating the cylindrical members in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the first direction. In addition, the magnetic field measuring apparatus has a living-body holder located in an inner-side space of the cylindrical member and a cryostat inserted into the third opening and maintaining SQUID magnetic-flux meters.
