In memory of Mr. Aviel Ron, 55 Director of the Survey of Israel, perished 31.03.02 in the terrorist act in Haifa together with his daughter, 25 and son, 21
Eilat magnetic observatory ( = 29 40’ ; = 3457’). Magnetic field produced by DIDD at 3 meters from the instrument was measured to be approx up to 2 nT.

Paleomagnetic measurements of rock samples were performed by Dr. Igor Tunyi and his colleagues from Slovakia Geophysical Institute: Magnetization is hard and stable Carrier of magnetization is hematite and probably ilmenite Main value of remanent polarization J = 2.9 nT, Main value of magnetic susceptibility K = 67.9.10-6 uSI, Gradient components at the installation point were estimated as follows: L < 5 nT/m – horizontal, along the tunnel direction; T < 8 nT/m – horizontal, transverse to the tunnel direction; V < 5 nT/m – vertical
