Team Develops Primary Standard to Measure Ultralow Pressures
Today, a team of scientists have announced the development of a new primary standard for ultralow pressures. This standard, created by researchers from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the University of Colorado Boulder, is the first of its kind and is currently the most accurate standard for ultralow pressures. This standard is incredibly precise and can measure pressures as low as 10-11 torr. With this new technology, researchers will be able to better understand the behavior of gases at low pressures, which can have implications for a wide range of scientific fields.
