Temperature and pressure are the two most important thermodynamic elements, which determine the existent state of substance. Low temperature and high pressure are significant and key extreme conditions in the modern experimental science, providing new routes for many subjects such as physics, chemistry, materials and biology, and playing an important role in finding new phenomena. The magnetic research under extreme conditions is an important branch of the study of the extreme conditions, which not only presents the magnetic changes of the material under extreme conditions, but also is an important means to explore the high temperature superconductors. In this article, we elaborate the principle and method of measuring the magnetic susceptibility and superconducting transition temperature under high pressure. The in-situ magnetic measurement system under high pressure and low temperature is also briefly introduced, designed and installed by ourselves. Using the in-situ magnetic measurement system, the magnetic transition of iron and the superconducting transition temperature of the yttrium barium copper oxide sample under high pressure are measured.
