Journal ArticleDOI
A low-uncertainty measurement of the Boltzmann constant
Michael de Podesta,Robin Underwood,G. Sutton,Paul Morantz,Peter M. Harris,Darren F. Mark,Finlay M. Stuart,Gergely Vargha,Graham Machin +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the Boltzmann constant kB was derived from measurements of the speed of sound in argon gas which can be related directly to the mean molecular kinetic energy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Precision engineering for astronomy and gravity science
Paul Shore,C. Cunningham,D.B. DeBra,Christopher J. Evans,J. H. Hough,R. Gilmozzi,H. Kunzmann,Paul Morantz,Xavier Tonnellier +8 more
TL;DR: The fields of astronomy and gravitational science have presented significant precision engineering challenges as mentioned in this paper, and many solutions for these fields of science have achieved unprecedented levels of accuracy, sensitivity and sheer scale.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultra-precision: enabling our future
Paul Shore,Paul Morantz +1 more
TL;DR: The ambitions of the defence, automotive and microelectronics sectors are identified as important drivers of improved manufacturing accuracy capability and ever smaller feature creation and improved application of measurement is introduced.
Journal ArticleDOI
Grinding metre scale mirror segments for the E-ELT ground based telescope
TL;DR: In this article, the Zerodur ® mirror segment for the European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT) is introduced, employing an R-theta grinding mode with a multi stage grinding process material removal rates of up to 187.5 mm 3 /s.
Journal ArticleDOI
Current trends and future of sequential micro-machining processes on a single machine tool
TL;DR: A recent surge of interest is geared towards building sequential micro-machining capabilities on a single machine tool to avoid realignment errors as discussed by the authors, which suppresses repositioning errors so enabling much higher levels of accuracy, tighter tolerances, reduced rejection of machined components, and lower production time.
