Summary In this paper we discuss a method of measuring high pulsed magnetic fields by means of the Faraday method i.e. we measure the rotation of the plane of polarization α caused by a magnetic field in an optical medium, in our experiment flintglass F.D. For the production of the intense transient magnetic fields (450,000 Oersted) we use energy obtained from a bank of charged condensors (1000 μF). The value of the Verdet constant is determined by comparing the results of the induction method with those of magneto-optical Faraday method. A new design for the construction of coils of rectangular cross-section is also given.
