Summary: The investigation into the cause of furnace effect during the realization of high-temperature fixed points at the copper point showed that modifications of the cavity design and applying a small aperture at the cavity opening can reduce the effect. It was found that the interaction between the furnace and the cavity through reflection at the cavity side wall is linked to the design of the HTFP cells, and the effect at the copper point in a HTFP furnace is estimated to be around 14 mK or less, causing the realized temperature to be lower than the true temperature.

Summary: Large-area blackbody cylinder conical cavities are widely used for calibrating and characterizing radiation thermometers and thermal imagers in the infrared. The radiated temperature depends on effective emissivity and contact temperature. The uniformity of the emitted radiation is influenced by the cone angle and temperature gradient along the cavity. The optimization of blackbody depends on geometric parameters and temperature.

Summary: In this study, a recently introduced semiclassical model of light-matter interaction was explored, and it was found that it can reproduce the Boltzmann populations in two-level systems and predict black-body spectra in approximate agreement with Planck's distribution. In multilevel systems, small deviations from the expected occupations were observed, but these can be rationalized through a rate equation derived from the dissipative equation of motion.

Summary: The study presents an improved BBR temperature evaluation method by optimizing the ion trap structure and using a BBR shield to reduce uncertainty. By measuring the shield temperature with a platinum resistance temperature sensor outside the vacuum chamber, the BBR temperature uncertainty of the newly designed system was significantly reduced.

Summary: This work examines the thermal correction to the hyperfine interaction in hydrogen, deuterium, and the 3He+ ion. The correction is described by one-loop Feynman graphs in the quantum electrodynamics theory at finite temperature. The obtained results are shown to be important for future measurements of hyperfine splitting and for testing the time variation of fundamental constants.

Summary: This paper presents a systematic comparative analysis of the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm and simulated annealing (SA) algorithm in the application of Multispectral radiation thermometry (MRT). The results indicate that the PSO algorithm outperforms the SA algorithm in accuracy, efficiency, and stability. The PSO algorithm is used to simulate the measured data of the surface temperature of a rocket motor nozzle, with a maximum absolute error of 16.27 K, a maximum relative error of 0.65%, and a calculation time of less than 0.3 s. The superior performance of the PSO algorithm suggests its potential for accurate temperature measurement in MRT and its applicability to various industrial processes under high temperature conditions.

Summary: The study utilized the radiometry hybrid method, incorporating a lens to the irradiance method using a 900 nm filter radiometer, to measure the thermodynamic temperature of various fixed points at the National Institute of Metrology, China. Accurate estimation of effective diameters was achieved by scanning the uniformity of fixed-point blackbodies and considering the size of the source effect. The discrepancy between thermodynamic temperature and ITS-90 values for different fixed point blackbodies was concluded, with standard uncertainties estimated.
