I want help to build something much like an microphone but instead of
picking up airwaves, i want it to pickup oscillation (in the field?)
from a moving magnet.

Could i use an ordinary microphone and replace the membran with
something?

Telephone pickup coil:

But this will pickup electro magnetic fields as well as magnetic?

I want to build something that will pickup an oscillating permanent
magnet in the range 10-96 000 khz
I plan to use a ordinar speaker that work in the range 40-15 000 khz,
and replace the cone with glued neodynium magnets.

Could you give an idea how to build a receiver for this *crude*
permanent magnetic oscillation.

I guess i have to place the speaker in a vaccum chamber to keep it
quiet ;)

Yes; enclose it in a non ferrous shield.

Good luck on that.

You do realize the mass of a speaker cone is squat?

Hardly squat, you really beleive there would be a problem glueing
neodyniums around an eight inch speaker. No problem what so ever, the
problem is to get it quiet.....

You know it is quite alot of air to be moved at 120 db 30 hz, so if
you actually remove the cone you will find that the coil is a lot
stronger than you thought.

No, the problem is moving the mass.

And what holds the coil in place if you remove the cone?

Well the idea is to make it move....

I guess you could glue the magnets directly on the dome or on the
wired coil and constrain it with a lowresistance spring instead of the
cone.

What i wonder about is the ideal surface area should it be like an
coil/antenna or cover as much area as possible.

Yeah, and F=ma.

Compare the mass of the cone to the mass of the magnets you want to
glue on.

A minimum of 3 low resistance, low mass, non magnetic springs.

Have you every taken a speaker apart to see how they are constructed?

Make a loop of wire with a voltmeter attached.

Good idea
Dimensions of the wiring, does it matter?
But can't i place the wired loop direct on a high sensity mic, or will
it be to low current flowing the loop?

Would be nice with at least 1-2 meter between sender and receiver.

Magnetic flux is int(B.dA), induced EMF is the negative time rate of
change in ..wait... instead of having me teach you basic E&M, why not
buy a textbook and learn this sh.t yourself?

Use an amplifier?

A pony would be nice, too. Or a cube a meter on a side made of pure
gold. Or a sensual massage from one of the women with nice tits who
lives around here. Or all of the above!

Tell you what, you worry about your latest inane fixation and I'll
worry about my attractive neighbors.

Hmmm.... Nothing about *time* in this article.

If you ever decide to sue your school for fraud remember my
offer to give tesimony on your behalf.  :o)

That's because it is IRRELEVANT, stupid.

“ a sensual massage from one of the women
 with nice tits who lives around here ”, you say, and:
“ I'll worry about my attractive neighbors ”.

Thanks for the warning.
Now, when I hear you screeming in pain on Sci.Physics,
I'll know exactly what the true cause was.

Hall effect sensor; piezoelectric fiber with a low-mass high field
magnet at its free end; fiberoptic and Faraday rotation; a coil.

The question needs to be restated. What kind of EM are you measuring ?
[1] Frequency, and [2] intensity please.

But you know something.....you just gave me an idea how to build a
nanoscale motor.

Who cares...probably already been done.

It has.
gears,  motors and all sorts of stuff that small already has been
created.
But, if you can find a way to create them "cheaply" then you have
something worth thinking more about.
