Abstract
This disclosure presents systems, devices, and methods that use magnetometers to measure large magnetic moments with strong magnetic anisotropy. A torque magnetometer may include an actuator driven by a motor, a load cell coupled to the actuator, a rotatable spool having a platform configured to hold a sample of a superconductor material, where the rotatable spool is coupled to the load cell by a first line, a pulley, and a second line extending between the rotatable spool and a counterweight, where the second line is positioned on the pulley. Movement of the actuator may cause the rotatable spool to rotate an angle of the platform relative to a magnetic field about the rotatable spool, and the load cell is capable of measuring the tension on the first line.
