Abstract:
After the laser trapping and cooling, the cold atoms in a cesium fountain clock undergo a short period of upward acceleration and uniform motion due to the frequency detuning of the upward and the downward lasers. Then, with the cooling laser shut down, the cold atoms keep going up to the apex under the gravity and then fall down to the detection area to be detected by the detection laser. The height of cold atoms throw-up is the distance from the MOT center to the apex. Previous calculations ignored the acceleration and uniform upward movement of the cold atoms, resulting in a systematic error. This paper corrects for the error by considering three different movement processes of the cold atoms and accurately calculates the height of the cold atoms throw-up from the experimental data of the time-of-flight signal.

Abstract:
Cold-atom systems provide a nearly static measurement medium with almost no interaction between the atoms for quantum precision measurement processes, thereby avoiding the frequency shift and broadening existing in the working medium of hot atoms, making the measurement results more accurate. However, the atomic cooling part of current quantum precision measurement systems is bulky and complex, which is not conducive to miniaturization of distributable quantum measurement standard systems. In order to make a less complex magneto-optical trap system, we adopted the scheme to combine the diffraction grating chip and the atomic cooling technique. The wavefront of a single incident light was phase modulated through the linear grating, and the atoms were successfully trapped on a chip scale. The preparation of the core chip of a miniaturized magneto-optical trap and the realization of the magneto-optical trap system with a simple optical structure can lay a solid foundation for further miniaturization of the overall system of a magneto-optical trap in the future.

Abstract:
The range coefficient in the range method for standard uncertainty evaluation is simulated based on Monte Carlo simulation. The reference values of the range coefficients are given for the uncertainty evaluation by the range method under the condition that the overall input quantities obey different distributions. The accuracy of the calculated coefficients is verified by comparing them with the experimental standard deviations calculated by the Bessel formula. It is also found that the experimental standard deviations can be calculated easily and accurately by substituting the corresponding reference values of the range coefficients into the range method when the overall distribution of the input quantities is known. Finally, the differences of the range deviation coefficients under different distributions are compared, and the relationship between the number of measurements, the probability distribution function and the choice of range deviation coefficients is given.ice of range deviation coefficients is given.evaluation. In the end, by analyzing the difference of range coefficients calculated under the different population distributions, the relationship among the number of measurements, probability distribution, and the selection of range coefficient is demonstrated.

Abstract:
Surface tension is one of the most important basic properties of liquid. Accurate measurement of surface tension plays an important role in industrial production and scientific research. At present, calibration of surface tensiometers in China lacks foundation due to the lack of detailed research on evaluation of measurement uncertainty of surface tension. This paper studies the measurement uncertainty in the error of indication of surface tensiometers based on the platinum plate method and the platinum ring method. The results showed that the main uncertainty components come from the measurement repeatability and the reference value. The uncertainty of reference value mainly comes from the probe size. The uncertainty caused by the special weights and the gravity acceleration is less than that caused by the probe size. For the same level of measurement repeatability, the uncertainty in the error of indication of a surface tensiometer based on the platinum plate method is greater than that of a surface tensiometer based on the platinum ring method.

Abstract:
⁶⁸Ge-⁶⁸Ga phantoms are mainly used in PET/CT image uniformity adjustment and SUV value correction. In order to produce a ⁶⁸Ge-⁶⁸Ga phantom, an epoxy resin modified by polysulfide rubber was used as the substrate and the carrier solution of ⁶⁸Ge-⁶⁸Ga was used to simulate ⁶⁸Ge-⁶⁸Ga radioactive solution. The homogeneous mixture of carrier solution, epoxy resin, and curing agent was filled in a shell of high density polyethylene (HDPE). After the mixture was solidified completely, a non-radioactive phantom with hard texture, color transparent and non-bubble was prepared. Inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES) was used to detect the concentration of Ge and Ga elements in the phantom. The results of uniformity analysis showed that there was no significant difference in the concentration distribution of Ge and Ga in the phantom, and the relative standard deviations were 2.20% and 3.65%, respectively, which were equivalent to similar imported products. It was indicated that the process described in this paper can be used for the preparation of ⁶⁸Ge-⁶⁸Ga phantom.

Abstract:
This paper proposes acceptance limits for the nosie dose ratio of noise dosimeters. The ratio of the noise dose of a sound burst signal to the noise dose of the steady-state signal under the same amplitude, frequency, measurement duration and judgment standard sound level, i.e. the noise dose ratio, of a noise dosimeter is studied. The dependence of the noise dose ratio on the time average sound level (i.e. equivalent continuous sound level), repetitive tone burst response, repetition time, and the duration of a single tone burst is also studied. The acceptance limits were used as criteria to evaluate the performance of several noise dosimeters and the test results lay within the limits.

Abstract:
Temperature gradient of the side stirred constant thermostatic bath above 100 mm has been studied experimentally. The research shows that the temperature gradient of the upper temperature field of the thermostat bath (30~100) mm can meet the requirements of the general industrial thermometers such as liquid-in-glass thermometer for working and industrial platinum resistance thermometer between 50 ℃ and 200 ℃. According the experiment, the influence of insertion depth on the sensor measurement results depends on the thermal conductivity of the sensor material. The smaller the thermal conductivity is, the smaller the influence will be. For temperature sensors of the same material, the influence of the insertion depth on the measured result depends on the depth-to-diameter ratio. It could be inferred from the experiment that when calibrating the shorter temperature sensor, the axial heat transfer is the main source of measurement errors. As the calibration temperature increases, the insertion depth has a greater influence on the measurement results.
