The Merck-Purdue Center for Measurement Science is a win-win-win. Merck & Co. scientists get access to experts at one of the top U.S. programs in measurement science and the chance to contribute to ...

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 ...

When you're under pressure to set direction, justify investment, or understand your competitive position, you need more than raw data — you need trusted insights you can act on. Benchmark your ...

In no field of science is the gulf between appreciation and importance as wide as it is for metrology. It’s not about the weather. Metrology is the science of measuring. It has a longer history than ...

Through randomly selected measurements, physicists can determine the quantum entanglement of many-particle systems. With the newly developed method, quantum simulations can be extended to a larger ...

The Material Measurement Laboratory (MML) is one of the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST’s) six major laboratories and one of NIST’s fundamental metrology laboratories. The ...

During training cruises and regattas, sailors collect valuable data for climate research at sea. A study appearing in Science Advances showed that this data can help improve estimates of the marine ...
