Improvements to the SI are helping to evolve the science of accuracy and measurement. Democratization of the SI creates a traceability calibration chain accessible to anyone, anywhere. Digitization of ...

Many volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are potentially harmful to the environment and people, so it’s useful to know when they are present. These authors developed a method to identify VOCs that ...

I was watching Ben Krasnow making iron nitride permanent magnets and was struck by the fact that about half of the video was about making a magnetometer – a device for measuring and characterizing the ...

By using something called a quantum grid, scientists have found a clever way to simultaneously measure momentum and position without violating Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.

For the first time, an international research team led by the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory (SHAO) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has demonstrated that applying pixelized strong-lensing ...

Assess a discrete measurement. Perform analyzes for potential and long term control and capability. Make decisions on measurement systems process improvement. In this module, we will learn to identify ...

The National Measurement Laboratory, Government Chemist and MHRA – three critical national functions of science and safety – brought together in a purpose-designed laboratory facility for the first ...

Today, modern measurement technologies enable high-precision detection of the movement of liquids and gases - and thus provide valuable data for numerous applications. How does the air flow around an ...

Humans live in a universe; that is a fact. Up for debate, though, is whether that universe lives in a sea of other universes—a multiverse. The idea of a multiverse is the subject of much science ...
