柬埔寨的吴哥古迹主要由灰色至黄褐色的砂岩建造。经证实，这些纪念碑的砂岩矿物成分和化学成分没有差异。然而，我们发现它们的磁化率是一个有用的参数，可以用来区分它们。吴哥窟的主要古迹，到Prohm，Preah Khan，Banteay Kdei和Bayon，从吴哥窟时期建造到Bayon时期（从公元12世纪开始到公元13世纪开始），使用便携式磁化率计进行了详细的调查。我们成功地把建设时期划分为几个阶段。这说明了古迹的扩建过程，并将其建造阶段联系起来。
The Angkor monuments in Cambodia are mainly constructed of grey to yellowish-brown sandstones. No differences in the constituent minerals and in the chemical composition of the sandstones have been confirmed among the monuments. However, we have found their magnetic susceptibility a useful parameter by which to distinguish them. The principal monuments of Angkor Wat, To Prohm, Preah Khan, Banteay Kdei and Bayon, constructed from the Angkor Wat period to the Bayon period (from the beginning of the 12th century to the beginning of the 13th century AD), were investigated in detail using a portable magnetic susceptibility meter. We succeeded in dividing the periods of construction into stages. This elucidated the enlargement process of the monuments and correlated their construction stages.
