Improved Acoustic Thermometry for Long-Distance Temperature Measurements

open access: yesSensors, 2023
Accurate measurements of long distances (in the order of tens of meters or more) are necessary in manufacturing processes of large structures, as, for example, in the aerospace industry.

Uncertainty in Measurements of Distance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Ng and van Dam have argued that quantum theory and general relativity give a lower bound of L^{1/3} L_P^{2/3} on the uncertainty of any distance, where L is the distance to be measured and L_P is the Planck length.

On Pulsar Distance Measurements and their Uncertainties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Accurate distances to pulsars can be used for a variety of studies of the Galaxy and its electron content. However, most distance measures to pulsars have been derived from the absorption (or lack thereof) of pulsar emission by Galactic HI gas, which ...

A vectorial tree distance measure [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Abstract A vectorial distance measure for trees is presented. Given two trees, we define a Tree-Alignment (T-Alignment). We T-align the trees from their centers outwards, starting from the root-branches, to make the next level as similar as possible.
