Abstract
An apparatus and method for the repeatable detection and recording of low-threshold molecular electromagnetic signals. The sample material and detection apparatus are contained with a magnetically shielded faraday cage to shield them from extraneous electromagnetic signals. The detection apparatus includes a detection coil and Super Conducting Quantum Interference Device (“SQUID”). White noise is injected external to the SQUID and the signals emitted by the sample material enhanced by stochastic resonance.
