Imaging temperature fields at the nanoscale is a central challenge in various areas of science and technology. Nanoscopic hotspots, such as those observed in integrated circuits or plasmonic ...

Temperature is a master environmental variable that affects virtually all natural and engineered systems, from the molecular through the “systems” level. Conventional temperature measurements rely on ...

Oral and rectal temperatures are the most reliable predictors of core body temperature, but measuring these temperatures in children under 4 years of age is often difficult. Currently the rectal ...

Acoustic thermometry is an arcane, elegant temperature measurement technique. It utilizes sound’s temperature dependent transit time in a medium to measure temperature. The medium may be a solid, ...

Reliable temperature measurement is indispensable in science, engineering, and environmental monitoring. However, many traditional sensors, including contact probes, pyrometers, or fibre optic devices ...

Acoustic thermometry presents a high-accuracy alternative by directly detecting atmospheric temperature with a wide dynamic range and robust performance. However, existing methods depend on precise ...

Biocompatible molecular spin sensors enable absolute thermometry in the cytoplasm and nucleus of living cancer cells.

A Northwestern University (NWU) team is finding new applications for brain temperature data in the operating room, imposing a detailed "roadmap" of cerebral functions that it is hoped will make brain ...

"Tri-current" delta VBE makes it possible to separate sampling, subtraction, and cancellation of IR effects, enabling the implementation of cost-effective thermometers. Because cheap, common, and ...

New research led by scientists at UC San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography finds that the travel time of underwater sounds moving across the Arctic Ocean can be used to precisely measure ...
