Three types of paleomagnetic samples ...

 In the paleomag lab, we measure 3 types of material: above, the cubes for alternating field demagnetization,
 above, the core section for in-line alternating field demagnetization on the superconducting magnetometer (Helium-free)
finally these "cubes"'s destiny is to be baked up to 700ºC for thermal demagnetization
