A COMPARISON OF THE INITIAL UNCERTAINTY BUDGET AND AN ESTIMATE OF THE POSTERIOR UNCERTAINTIES, IN THE CASE OF LARGE BATCHES OF CALIBRATION DATA: THE LHC THERMOMETERS AT CERN

Daniela Ichim, Franco Pavese

Abstract

The paper will describe the techniques that have been used to perform the comparison on large batches of cryogenic semiconductor-type thermometers, calibrated for the CERN LHC and the main results obtained: they concern either the uncertainty of the CernoxTM thermometers under calibration and the behaviour of the standards used during the calibrations.

Keywords
