A Measurement First: NIST Noise Thermometry System Measures Boltzmann Constant
[ http://www.nist.gov/pml/quantum/constant-033011.cfm ]"Wed, 30 Mar 2011
15:39:28 -0500"
Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have
for the first time used an apparatus that relies on the ldquonoiserdquo of
jiggling electrons to make highly accurate measurements of the Boltzmann
constant, ...
