We remark first that there is no centering problem when the investigated material fills the whole volume of the capsule, as exemplified by the first four capsules in Figure . The magnetic moment of the sample is distributed evenly along the length of the sample and the MultiVu centering routine will direct the user to the proper alignment, marked as the black dashed line. There are also no big issues with establishing the accurate magnitude of m of such massive amounts of material. The reference measurement of the empty capsule will provide the correct magnitudes of the background signal. Alternatively, the studies can be carried out within the automatic background subtraction (ABS) method frame. Figure . Some examples of the use of small capsules (#5 in this example) for measurements of substances that otherwise would be difficult to reliably and cleanly mount in the SQUID sample chamber. From the left, the first four are fully loaded, so no alignment problems are expected. The magnetic "center of gravity", marked by the dashed black line, coincides with that of the capsules. These capsules house common curry, cinnamon, turmeric, and red pepper powders. The fifth capsule houses a small, 2.1 mg, crystallite of SnTe, used later to validate the in situ compensation method put forward in this report.
