How to Measure Nothing Better

Cold atoms could also potentially measure much lower vacuum pressures than ion gauges can. The current lowest pressure they’ve reliably measured is around 10 -9 Pa, and NIST scientists are working on ...
DEAR DR. ROACH: A cardiologist recently suggested that I should consider taking a statin because of my “borderline” cholesterol level. So, I took a dive into the details of statin therapy. I learned ...
Abstract: GNSS time transfer is the main technology currently used in UTC generation. GNSS reception chains need to be calibrated for ensuring accuracy and long-term stability of time links. This ...
