QUANTUM METROLOGY AND SCIENTIFICMETROLOGICAL ASPECTS OF TRANSITION TO THE NEW SI UNIT SYSTEM (2019)
DOI:
https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17447479Abstract
This article analyzes the fundamental redefinition of the International System of Units (SI) implemented in 2019
from the perspective of quantum metrology. The research examines the scientific-metrological aspects of transitioning
to the new SI unit system, the development of standards based on quantum phenomena, and the challenges arising in
practical implementation. The article investigates the fundamental principles of quantum metrology, the new definitions
of the kilogram, kelvin, ampere, and mole, as well as the impact of these changes on scientific and technical fields.
The research results demonstrate the advantages, limitations, and future development prospects of the new SI system.
The transition represents a paradigm shift from artifact-based standards to fundamental constants of nature, ensuring
unprecedented accuracy and universal reproducibility in measurement science.
