TILO MERLIN, ANDREAS DECKER, JÖRG GEBHARDT, CHRISTIAN JOHANSSON – Temperature and pressure are the most common measurements made in the process industry. Around half of the temperature measurements ...

The extremely low operational temperature of just a tenth of a degree above absolute zero (0.1 K) has been reached on the detectors of Planck’s High Frequency Instrument (HFI). This makes the HFI ...

DAVINCI will send a meter-diameter probe to brave the high temperatures and pressures near Venus’ surface to explore the atmosphere from above the clouds to near the surface of a terrain that may have ...

The James Webb Space Telescope is armed with four instruments, three of which work in the near-infrared and the last of which, MIRI or the Mid-Infrared Instrument, works in the mid-infrared. That ...

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope will see the first galaxies to form after the big bang, but to do that its instruments first need to get cold – really cold. On April 7, Webb’s Mid-Infrared ...

Years ago my mother had a Heathkit “Marine Depth Sounder” that also could (in theory) help locate fish. This fish finder used a rotating disk and a small neon light that indicated depth. Mom could ...

A PAPER read recently in London by Dr. G. F. Tagg before the Institution of Electrical Engineers has for its theme the fact that one cause of errors in indicating and recording instruments is their ...

A number of applications involve processing granular materials or powders at high temperatures. This may be driven by manufacturing process requirements or variations in environmental conditions, ...

The VASI (Venus Atmospheric Structure Investigation) instrument aboard NASA’s Deep Atmosphere Venus Investigation of Noble gases, Chemistry, and Imaging, or DAVINCI, mission to Venus, together with ...
