At the D. I. Mendeleyev Institute for Metrology (VNIIM) a high-precision system using helium-4 atomic magnetic resonance has been realized for the automatic reproduction and maintenance of direct current in the range 0.1 A to 1.0 A. A random standard uncertainty of 2 10 -8 was obtained for stabilization at 1 A, with a non-linearity of less than 2 10 -7 in the frequency-to-current conversion factor. The conversion factor was determined experimentally through the gyromagnetic ratio of helium-4 atoms and the calculable coil constant of a high-precision solenoid. The technique was used to determine the gyromagnetic ratio of the proton and for the accurate reproduction of the tesla using the calculable solenoid.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
