Not exact matches
Important questions yet to be resolved include the details of obtaining and confirming a target warhead during the zero - knowledge
measurement; specifics of establishing and maintaining the pre-loaded detectors in a way that ensures inspecting party confidence without revealing any data considered
sensitive by the inspected party; and feasibility questions associated with safely deploying active interrogation
measurement techniques on actual nuclear warheads in
sensitive physical environments, in a way that provides confidence to both the inspected and inspecting parties.
These predictions, made using powerful computers, were verified using highly precise
measurements taken using an extremely
sensitive technique called «cavity - ring down spectroscopy».
These
techniques minimize the effects of environmental noise and allow us to make much more
sensitive temperature
measurements.»
More
sensitive microwave detectors may lead to great improvements of the present communication systems and
measurement techniques.
Eric Dooryhee explains that a synchrotron is an exceptionally powerful source of light (from x-rays to infrared), which permits fast,
sensitive experiments to be done without damage on minute samples of objects, using a range of analytical
techniques and allowing
measurements to be made below the surface.
The repeated, continuous
measurements make the
technique especially
sensitive and accurate in identifying «fingerprints» of specific molecules.
