Several improvements greatly reduce the uncertainties: (1) measuring the anelasticity of the fiber directly; (2) using spherical source masses minimizes the effects of density inhomogeneity and eccentricities; (3) using a quartz block pendulum simplifies its vibration modes and minimizes the uncertainty of inertial moment; (4) setting the pendulum and source masses both in a vacuum chamber reduces the error of measuring the relative positions.&quot;<\/div>\n<div class=\"delicious-tags\">(tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/physics\">physics<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/experiment\">experiment<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/gravity\">gravity<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/science\">science<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/articles\">articles<\/a>)<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div class=\"delicious-link\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/blog\/Behind-the-Scenes-with-Colbert\/\">The White House &#8211; Blog Post &#8211; Behind the Scenes with Colbert<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"delicious-extended\">&quot;Have a look behind the scenes as the President makes his bold, resolute, and yes, decisive decision to order Stephen Colbert&#8217;s hair removed:&quot;<\/div>\n<div class=\"delicious-tags\">(tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/video\">video<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/politics\">politics<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/television\">television<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/silly\">silly<\/a>)<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>symmetry breaking \u00c2\u00bb Blog Archive \u00c2\u00bb The science of talking so people want to listen &quot;Connecting science to everyday experiences in jargon free terms is key to science outreach, something Turner excels at doing.
