How To Use bolometer In A Sentence
- The researchers from the University of Zaragoza (UNIZAR) and the Institut d'Astrophysique Spatiale (IAS, in France), made assumptions about the nature of dark matter based on theoretical studies, and developed device called a "scintillating bolometer" to detect the result of interaction of dark matter with material inside the detector.

- Though the last-named investigator has extended our knowledge of it to a point much beyond the lowest visible ray, there yet remains a still remoter region, more extensive than the whole visible spectrum, the study of which has been entered on at Alleghany, by means of the linear bolometer. Scientific American Supplement, No. 363, December 16, 1882
- The latest is a "scintillating bolometer", a 46-gram device that, in this case, contains a crystal "scintillator", made up of bismuth, germinate and oxygen BGO: Bi4Ge3O12, which acts as a dark matter detector. A Prototype Detector for Dark Matter in the Milky Way | Universe Today
- This sorts out the different narrow spectral images, without danger of overlapping, and after their passage through the prism we find them again, and fix their position by means of the bolometer, which for this purpose is attached to a special kind of spectrometer, where its platinum thread replaces the reticule of the ordinary telescope. Scientific American Supplement, No. 363, December 16, 1882
- Bolometers are devices whose electrical resistance changes with temperature.
- Antenna-coupled bolometers commonly achieve time responses of 100 nanoseconds, with shorter times possible depending upon the thermal isolation of the sensor element.
- On the thermal side are thermocouples, thermopiles, bolometers, and pneumatic detectors.
- Professor Langley is at work upon it with new and specially constructed apparatus, including a "bolometer" so sensitive that, whereas previous experimenters have thought themselves fortunate if they could get deflections of ten or twelve galvanometric divisions to work with, he easily obtains three or four hundred. Scientific American Supplement, No. 443, June 28, 1884
- The scintillating bolometer is currently at the Orsay University Centre in France, where the team is working to optimise the device's light gathering, and carrying out trials with other BGO crystals. A Prototype Detector for Dark Matter in the Milky Way | Universe Today
- We have no time or space here to describe Professor Langley's "bolometer;" it must suffice to say that it seems to stand to the thermopile much as that does to the thermometer. Scientific American Supplement, No. 443, June 28, 1884
