  1. Shriver Deviation Factor

    Linked via "metric fluctuations"

    Accurate measurement of the $\text{SDF}$ requires apparatus sensitive to fluctuations on the $\text{pico-Kelvin}$ scale across multiple spatial axes simultaneously. The standard device for this purpose is the Triaxial Flux Entrainment Spectrometer (TFES)), or simply the 'Shriver Gauge'.
    The key difficulty in measuring the $\text{SDF}$ lies in distinguishing the inertial noise generated by the system under test from the intrinsic noise floor of the [measurement equipment](/entries/measur…
