Extending the dynamic temperature range of Boltzmann thermometers
Light: Science & Applications, 2022 Boltzmann thermometers rely on the luminescence from energy levels in thermal equilibrium. Understanding of factors that enhance equilibration allows the design of lanthanide-based thermometers with extended operating range.

Scientific Reports, 2022 It is widely accepted that most people spend the majority of their lives indoors. Most individuals do not realize that while indoors, roughly half of heat exchange affecting their thermal comfort is in the form of thermal infrared radiation. We show that

Animals, 2021 Monitoring the temperature of piglets after birth is critical to ensure their well-being. Rectal temperature measurement is time-consuming, requires fixation of the animal and is stressful for piglets.

Nonequilibrium readiness and precision of Gaussian quantum thermometers
Physical Review Research, 2020 The dimensionality of a thermometer is key in the design of quantum thermometry schemes. In general, the phenomenology that is typical of qubit-based quantum thermometry does not apply to infinite-dimensional ones.

Comparative Analysis of Human Body Temperatures Measured with Noncontact and Contact Thermometers
Healthcare, 2022 Body temperature measurement is one of the basic methods in clinical diagnosis. The problems of thermometry—interpretation of the accuracy and repeatability of various types of thermometers—are still being discussed, especially during the current ...

Baby, It's Cold Outside – or how hot is hot, how cold is cold?
CHIMIA, 2021 Frank Loesser's song epitomises our fixation with temperature. But how do we define how hot is hot and how cold is cold? This short article looks at the history of temperature and why life today is much simpler than it was in the past.

New publication of the VDI/VDE guideline 3520 “Surface temperature measurement with contact thermometers” – contents and background of the development [PDF]
Journal of Sensors and Sensor Systems, 2023 Temperature measurement at the surface of solids by means of contact thermometers has its own metrological characteristics, which are in contrast to characteristics of the measurement with immersed contact thermometers.

Clinical evaluation of non-contact infrared thermometers
Scientific Reports, 2021 Non-contact infrared thermometers (NCITs) are being widely used during the COVID-19 pandemic as a temperature-measurement tool for screening and isolating patients in healthcare settings, travelers at ports of entry, and the general public. To understand
