Abstract

The process first applies a magnetostatic field to a target magnetic body to magnetize the target magnetic body. The process then cuts the magnetostatic field off and measures a transient variation in a differential magnetic flux density at a plurality of positions in the vicinity of the target magnetic body. The process subsequently determines a time constant of the transient variation in the differential magnetic flux density at the plurality of positions. The process then determines a specific characteristic value relating to the internal structure of the target magnetic body, based on a distribution of the time constant over the plurality of positions. This arrangement enables a variety of internal structures of the target magnetic body to be examined in a non-destructive manner.
