Instrumental neutron activation analysis of an enriched 28Si single-crystal
G. DAgostino, L. Bergamaschi, L. Giordani +2
The determination of the Avogadro constant plays a key role in the redefinition of the kilogram in terms of a fundamental constant. The present experiment makes use of a silicon si…
Bayesian estimate of the degree of a polynomial given a noisy data sample
Giovanni Mana, Paolo Alberto Giuliano Albo, Simona Lago
A widely used method to create a continuous representation of a discrete data-set is regression analysis. When the regression model is not based on a mathematical description of th…
The distribution of the electric current in a watt-balance coil
Carlo Paolo Sasso, Enrico Massa, Giovanni Mana
In the watt balance experiments, separate measurements of the magnetic and electromotive forces in a coil in a magnetic field enable a virtual comparison between mechanical and ele…
Precision measurements of the Planck and Avogadro constants
Horst Bettin, Kenichi Fujii, John Man +3
Precision measurements of the fundamental constants are tour de force of basic metrology, where the useful information is usually beyond the last digit of the measured value. They…
Finite element analysis of surface-stress effects in the Si lattice-parameter measurement
Carlo Sasso, Danilo Quagliotti, Enrico Massa +2
A stress exists in solids surfaces, similarly to liquids, also if the underlying bulk material is stress-free. This paper investigates the surface stress effect on the measured val…
The detection of signals buried in noise
Luigi Bergamaschi, Giancarlo D'Agostino, Laura Giordani +2
This paper examines signal detection in the presence of noise, with a particular emphasis to the nuclear activation analysis. The problem is to decide what between the signal-plus-…
