and magnetizing field
are opposite in direction,
and nagnetization
depends linearly
on the external
field.
Two cylindrj_cal
specfuens were used both of 4 rnrndianeter
and 23 mm
rength' Both of them were activated
and measured before and after activation,
The activation
was perforned in Mr. pavlitars
laboratory,
in the presence
of one author. The samples were prepared
and marked by us, and after actrva_
tion nobody could have tampeied wrth
or substituted
them. After activation
the character of magnetization
curves remained uncnangecl (i.e.
linear),
but
the absolute value of the susceptibility
increased by B5g due to the activa_
tion for both samples. The magnetization
curves (after elinlnating
thc effect
of adheslve tape) are shown in Fig, S
for both LiTaO3 crystals
(samples A and
B), before (curves a) and after
(curves b) activatron.
The measurenent nethod
was the same as that descrlbed earlier.
I'1ve blsmuth samples (which have a very
high dianagnetic
susceptibil.rty)
were manufaclured
ln order to t.est dlamagnetic
metal specimens, For three
sarnples the suscept.lbllity
decreased due to the acravation.
The test resu-Lt
of one of these samptes Is shovrn in Fig.
6. For arl the actlvation
tests the
magnetlzatlon
curve remalned linear,
but the degree of change vras different,
rn one case the susceptlbility
of the sampre lncreased (rts absotute
value
decreased), l.e.
the activation
changed the susceptibility
of this sample to
the opposite direction
of that found in the other cases. The
susceptiblllty
of the flfth
sarple was not influenced by the activation.
The induced change vanished gradual-ly
for a1l samples, three days after
the activatlon
a1I the sarnples had returned to therr pre_actlvation
level.
The effect of actlvation
was also investigated
for two paramagnetl-c
materlars,
viz'for alwririr'nn and praseodymium. Aruminium
has a low paranagnetrc
susceptlbility,
the neasured samples were in Lhe form of
a coiled strip of

of these sanples ls very low! practlcally
