Abstract
A probe for measuring the displacement between the outer supporting wall of a cryostat and the inner magnet coil form employs magnetically balanced strain gauges attached to a beam with one end fixed to the cryostat wall and the other end held by the magnet coil form. The magnetically balanced strain gauges comprise two superimposed strain gauges with countervailing current flow. In one embodiment, two sets of gauges are attached in conventional bridge arrangement to provide temperature compensation.
