National Physical Laboratory of India is realized by using an absolute radiometer. For practical work, a group of tungsten incandescent lamps are used. The level of uncertainty is ± 1.3 × 10. Experimental work has been initiated to realize mole, the SI unit for amount of substance The NPL does not maintain standards of measurements for ionizing radiations. This is the responsibility of the Homi Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Mumbai. The standards maintained at NPL are periodically compared with standards maintained at other National Metrological Institutes in the world as well as the BIPM in Paris. This exercise ensures that Indian national standards are equivalent
Stoic physics Stoic physics Stoic physics is the natural philosophy adopted by the Stoic philosophers of ancient Greece and Rome used to explain the natural processes at work in the universe. To the Stoics, the universe is a single pantheistic God, but one which is also a material substance.
