Chojnacky, Tobias Herman, Ken Hill, Steffen Rudtsch, Inseok Yang, Petrus Paulus Maria Steur, Roberto Dematteis, Lopardo Lopardo, Fernando Sparasci, Catherine Martin, Lara Risegari, Januarius Widiatmo, Tohru Nakano, Ikuhiko Saito, Klaus Natorf Quelhas, Patricia Giorgio, Jianping Sun, Jintao Zhang, Jonathan Pearce, Jayne Gray
This is a report to the Consultative Committee for Thermometry (CCT) on the key comparison 9 of SPRT calibration on the International Temperature Scale of 1990 (ITS-90) from 83.8058 K (the Ar triple point) to 692.677 K (the Zn freeze point). The comparison

Calibration Stability of Data Loggers Used for Vaccine Temperature Monitoring

March 6, 2023

Michal J. Chojnacky, Sam Smith, Bethany Rodman, Tobias Herman
Continuous temperature monitoring of vaccines during distribution and storage is critical to ensuring vaccination efficacy. Exposure to inappropriate storage temperatures can degrade vaccine potency, putting products and patients at risk if excursions go

Calibration of Hygrometers with the Hybrid Humidity Generator

September 23, 2021
Author(s)
Christopher W. Meyer, Tobias Herman, W. Wyatt Miller
We describe here the calibration of customer hygrometers using the NIST Hybrid Humidity Generator (HHG). This generator produces humidified air with water amount fractions (water mole fractions) ranging from 1.0×10−7 to 0.57 using calibration gas flows up

PHOTONIC THERMOMETRY: UPENDING 100 YEAR-OLD PARADIGM IN TEMPERATURE METROLOGY

August 1, 2019

Zeeshan Ahmed, Nikolai N. Klimov, Thomas P. Purdy, Tobias K. Herman, Kevin O. Douglass, Ryan P. Fitzgerald
For the past century, industrial temperature measurements have relied on resistance measurement of a thin metal wire or thin metal film whose resistance varies with temperature. Today’s resistance thermometers can routinely measure temperatures with

Field-induced Quantum Fluctuations in the Heavy Fermion Superconductor CeCu 2 Ge 2

October 13, 2011
Author(s)
Deepak Singh, A. Thamizhavel, Jeffrey W. Lynn, S. K. Dhar, Jose A. Rodriguez, Tobias K Herman
Quantum-mechanical fluctuations in strongly correlated electron systems cause unconventional phenomena such as non-Fermi liquid behavior, and arguably high temperature superconductivity. Here we report the discovery of a field-tuned quantum critical
