From (m.)Phys.org: Fundamentally Accurate Quantum Thermometer Better thermometers might be possible as a result of a discovery at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), where physicists have found a way to calibrate temperature measurements by monitoring the tiny motions of a nanomechanical system that are governed by the often counterintuitive rules of quantum mechanics. |

From (m.)Phys.org: Fundamentally Accurate Quantum Thermometer That's very interesting, thanks. (I still bet I'd burn the pizza though.) Reality Internet Personality |

(I still bet I'd burn the pizza though.) Ah, but you be more accurate in burning the pizza... ;-) |
