Paleomagnetism and Geochronology Laboratory

The Paleomagnetism and Geochronology Laboratory is a world-class first-rate laboratory.

It consists of Superconducting Rock Magnetometers 2G-755R and the 2G-760 U-Channel System, a paleointensity oven, spinner magnetometer and thermal demagnetizer,  which are installed in a non-magnetic room. The PGL is also equipped with the Variable Field Translation Balance System, Alternating Gradient Magnetometer, and Magnetic Properties Measurement System.

The major research areas include rock magnetism, magnetostraitigraphy, environmental magnetism and archaeomagnetism.
