A team of physicists say they have found a way to sidestep Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, one of the more troublesome ...

Scientific progress has been inseparable from better measurements. Before 1927, only human ingenuity seemed to limit how precisely we could measure things. Then Werner Heisenberg discovered that ...

For centuries, scientific progress has depended on more precise tools for measuring the world around us. Galileo’s telescope revealed Jupiter’s moons and shook the geocentric universe. Thomas Young’s ...

Monte Carlo methods have emerged as a crucial tool in the evaluation of measurement uncertainty, particularly for complex or non-linear measurement systems. By propagating full probability ...

By using something called a quantum grid, scientists have found a clever way to simultaneously measure momentum and position ...

Type: videos and slidesEnrolment Requirements: completion of participant form Objective: provide the participant with an understanding of the methods used for the assessment of various uncertainty ...

Measurement uncertainty is a critical parameter that reflects the degree of confidence in the results provided by analytical and clinical laboratories. It encompasses the evaluation of both random ...

The rules of statistical physics address the uncertainty about the state of a system that arises when that system interacts with its environment. But they've long missed another kind. In a new paper, ...
