Description

Gradiometry is a multidisciplinary area that combines
theoretical and applied physics, ultra-low noise electronics, precision
engineering, and advanced signal processing. Applications include the search
for oil, gas, and mineral resources, GPS-free navigation, defence, space
missions, and medical research. This book provides readers with a comprehensive
and updated overview of the history, applications, and current developments in
relation to some of the most advanced technologies in the 21st Century, especially
regarding future challenges in natural resource exploration in the changing
energy supply environment and a post COVID world. This new edition incorporates
the most important new directions
bringing fresh ideas into the field, including quantum or quantum-enabled
sensing and miniaturization of the operational environment in which
gradiometers should function.
