The new standard is the léngth of a single wave of green light | radiated by mercury 198, a form of {the slippery metal which does not exist in a pure state in nature | ‘This: wave of green light is 21 millionths of an inch long. It makes possible measurements of length precise to one part in 100 million. Purther refinement of equipment is expected to produce “a precision of one part in 1 bil{lion."” | “Such precision in the measure{ment of length,” according to ‘Dr. |E. U..

Scientists requiring greater precision than could be achieved by physical standards have been using the wavelengths of red radiations from heated cadmium, 1,553,163.13 of which equal one meter, A meter is 30.37 inches. Half a Dozen Weights But cadmium exists in half a dozen different atomic . weights which radiate slightly different wavelengths, This is like “receiving six different radio stations on nearly the same frequency,” the bureau said, and makes for less precision than that now obtainable from “mercury 198. Moreover, the human eye is seven times more sen sitive to green than to red light. The bureau's mercury measure was developed by Dr. William PF Meggers. In 1042 microscopic amounts of mercury 198 were produced for him by the University of California cyclotron.” In- 1945 the bureau sent a small amount of gold to the Oak Ridge, Tenn. atomic plant where it was transmuted into mercury 198 in a nucleaf pile,
