  • Abstract
    The method discussed uses the noise power produced in a waveguide termination at temperatures up to 600°C as a standard source of low-level power. A suitable type of hot source and associated waveguide and detecting circuits are described. Some experimental results are given of measurements on the effective temperature of a gas-discharge tube used as a secondary standard source.
