Some aspects of quality assessment of the k0-based method of NAA

Neutron activation analysis is one of the analytical techniques often used for certification of reference materials. The k₀-based method of instrumental neutron activation analysis can also be applied in intercomparison runs in the certification process and therefore it is desirable to know its accuracy in advance. Possible systematic errors related to the application of nuclear data at given neutron flux rate parameters, that can affect the uncertainties of the results obtained by this specific method, are elucidated and error propagation factors calculated for a typical irradiation position in the TRIGA Mark II reactor of the Jozef Stefan Institute. It was found that these uncertainties are at the level of 1–2% on the average.

Measurement uncertainty and the use of reference materials

The use of (certified) reference materials and quality control materials can form a suitable basis for evaluating measurement uncertainty of routine measurements. In particular when these materials are used for quality control purposes, it is not always evident how the quality control data can be used in the uncertainty budget of a routine measurement. Current guidance documents on the evaluation of measurement uncertainty and the use of reference materials treat this subject only in part, or in very generic terms. ISO/REMCO has established a new working group that will provide practical guidance and examples on how to use quality control data in the evaluation of measurement uncertainty. A short introduction to the subject is given.

Sampling and metrology

The result of a measurement refers in principle only to the amount of substance actually contributing to the analytical signal. However, an appropriate definition of the measurand must include a specification of the system for which the result of the measurement should apply. All systems being inherently heterogeneous, representativity assumes importance for the metrological quality of a measurement, and the process needed to ascertain representativity is sampling. The contribution from this characteristic must be included when expressing the uncertainty of the reported value of the measurand. Representative sampling of systems that are infinite or non-uniform was developed by Pierre Gy in his Theory of Sampling. Finite systems can achieve uniformity by mechanical treatment and mixing; the heterogeneity of these systems can be characterized by a sampling constant, expressed in units of weight, for each particular species being determined. Examples of the contribution of sampling to the uncertainty of analytical results are discussed for some biological materials.

On the generality of a cosmological speculation based on Heisenberg's principle

In a previous work [Hernández-Bermejo, B. (1996) Heisenberg's principle: A cosmological speculation, Speculations in Science and Technology, 19, 253], it was speculated that the lack of homogeneity of the large-scale structure of the universe may be due to quantum fluctuations of space in the early universe. This was argued for a Friedmann-type universe for which both the curvature and the cosmological constant were zero. Here it is shown that the same considerations are valid for arbitrary values of the curvature and .
