Abstract
A method is provided for positioning and orienting a platform such as a sample or workpiece relative to a frame of reference where the platform is a complex magnetic object that contains at least two magnetic domains with non-collinear magnetic moments and the method includes generating a spatially and temporally varying magnetic field so that each magnetic moment of the complex magnetic object interacts with the applied magnetic field. This can be used to performs an operation on a workpiece such as addition or removal of material. This can be used where the object includes a sample and, in each measurement configuration of the sample, radiation transmitted, reflected or scattered is measured from said sample material and analyzed to obtain information about the sample material.
