Abstract
Colloid dispersions of magnetite were used at SLAC and KEK to locate multipole magnet centers. We study here possible adaption of this method, to align RHIC magnets. A procedure for locating magnetic centers with respect to external fiducial markers, using electronic coordinate determination and digital TV image processing is described
