An aerosol generating device according to an embodiment includes a heater generating an aerosol by heating an aerosol generating substrate; a controller for controlling power supplied to the heater; at least one detachable element that is attachable to and detachable from an inner space or an outer space of the aerosol generating device; and a plurality of geomagnetic sensors for detecting changes in the strength of an internal magnetic field of the aerosol generating device, wherein the controller detects detachment of the detachable element based on a detection result from at least one of the plurality of geomagnetic sensors.
Distributed Airborne Electromagnetic Detection System
The present disclosure discloses a distributed airborne electromagnetic detection system, and relates to an airborne electromagnetic detection technology. The distributed airborne electromagnetic detection system comprises at least one transmitting system, at least one receiving system, at least one trunk module, and an earth station, and also a plurality of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for carrying the transmitting system, the receiving system, and the trunk module. The distributed airborne electromagnetic detection system does not require high performance or high economical efficiency for a single UAV; under precise synchronous flight conditions, the distance between a type I UAV and a transmitting loop structure can be greatly reduced, thereby significantly reducing the length of unwanted transmitting cable; and in addition, due to the better low-altitude low-speed performance of UAVs, the traveling speed of the entire system can be further reduced, thus obtaining higher quality data.

Gyro-magnetic wellbore surveying
Various implementations described herein are directed to a method for surveying a wellbore. A statistical estimation process that combines magnetic survey measurement data and gyroscopic survey measurement data to form error estimates in a magnetic survey system is applied. The error estimates are used to correct magnetic survey data provided by the magnetic survey system. Magnetic only survey data is used when convergence of the error estimates has occurred. Information that facilitates drilling the wellbore is provided.

Electronic magnetometer and method for measuring magnetic field
An electronic magnetometer and a method for measuring a magnetic field are provided. A Gunn diode with magnetic shielding and a Gunn diode without magnetic shielding generate different induced high-frequency oscillating currents in various environments.

Obtaining long-period magnetotelluric marine survey data using a towed streamer system
Techniques are disclosed for generating a time series representation of passive electromagnetic (EM) fields via towed streamer measurements without dependence on water-bottom measurement equipment. Such techniques may include storing records of respective time series measurements of passive EM fields measured by individual receivers as the individual receivers pass over a first measurement point, where the respective time series measurements correspond to respective measurement intervals, and where the respective time series measurements are synchronized with respect to a reference clock. The records of the respective time series measurements may be combined to generate a time series representation of passive EM fields observed at the first measurement point over a combination of the respective measurement intervals. The time series representation of passive EM fields observed at the first measurement point may, in turn, be used to identify one or more characteristics of subsurface structure.
