| Zusammenfassung | In some branches of metrology the quantity, or quantities, to be measured and the requirements for standards of this quantity, or these quantities, are clear-cut, although the accuracies required may not always be obvious. Good examples are time, length and mass. The quantities measured in neutron metrology and the requirements and uses of these quantities are less well known. This paper lays the foundation for subsequent more datailed discussions of the problems and issues faced by national metrology institutes when developing and providing standards. |
