Ammeter metering energy (the charge needs to be multiplied by the voltage to give energy) or for estimating the charge of a battery or capacitor. A picoammeter, or pico ammeter, measures very low electric current, usually from the picoampere range at the lower end to the milliampere range at the upper end. Picoammeters are used for sensitive measurements where the current being measured is below the theoretical limits of sensitivity of other devices, such as Multimeters. Most picoammeters use a "virtual short" technique and have several different measurement ranges that must be switched between to cover multiple decades of measurement. Other
Convergence of measures Convergence of measures In mathematics, more specifically measure theory, there are various notions of the convergence of measures. For an intuitive general sense of what is meant by "convergence in measure", consider a sequence of measures μ on a space, sharing a common collection of measurable sets. Such a sequence might represent an attempt to construct 'better and better' approximations to a desired measure μ that is difficult to obtain directly. The meaning of 'better and better' is subject to all the usual caveats for taking limits; for any error tolerance ε > 0 we require there be "N" sufficiently
