To promote the revision of the SI to a wider public, the BIPM and the LNE are partners in the competition "Français et Sciences" (French Language and Sciences) which this year focuses on the theme "Weights and Measures". The competition was launched on World Metrology Day (20 May 2018) and will end a few days before the 26th CGPM meeting (13-16 November 2018). The competition is open to French teachers in France and abroad, cultural centres, "Instituts français" or "Alliances françaises", libraries, museums or French language teaching centres.
The Physical Metrology Department is pleased to announce that the BIPM Kibble balance has been operating continuously and reliably under vacuum since mid-2018. As a consequence of the recent improvements, the measurement uncertainty of the Planck constant has been reduced from the 10-6 to the 10-7 level.
Twenty three participants from 17 countries successfully completed the "Train the trainer": transitioning to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 in the CIPM MRA capacity building course. The two-day course, organized by the BIPM and sponsored by METAS, was held on 23-24 May 2018.
