Length determination in the open field is routinely done with electronic distance meters (EDMs) that are limited in accuracy by the imperfect knowledge of the index of refraction of the light path through the atmosphere so that obtaining distances of several kilometers within an accuracy of 10-7 is a major challenge. Refractivity compensated EDMs, from the initial designs of the early 1970s...
In the context of today’s global interest in the neutrino research programs, with special emphasis on long baseline neutrino oscillation experiments, the LBNF project at Fermilab receives special attention. The world's highest-intensity neutrino beam will be sent 1,300 kilometers straight through the earth's mantle to massive high-precision DUNE experiment’s detectors located one mile deep...
