چکیده

Optically pumped helium magnetometers are important instruments which
have many applications in military, mass spectroscopy and space applications. In this
paper, the working principles of helium magnetometers have been explained. There is
also an introduction of a new method for finding the resonant frequency, which has
advantages to the typical method such as more sample rate possibility and realizing with
cheaper prices.
