Abstract
An apparatus for use in a system that includes a network analyzer for determining a property, such as dielectric permittivity of a sample material as a function of frequency, the apparatus including: a cylindrical chamber for receiving the sample; a coaxial connector having a first relatively small diameter end coupleable with the analyzer and a second relatively large diameter end communicating with a side of the cylindrical chamber, the connector having inner and outer coaxial conductors; the inner conductor of the connector having a diameter that tapers outwardly from the first end to the second end, and the outer conductor of the connector having an inner surface whose diameter tapers outwardly from the first end to the second end. The chamber can accommodate relatively large samples, such as standard earth formation coring samples.
