Abstract
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is providing a public opportunity to learn more about NIST efforts to develop a tabletop Kibble balance aimed at realizing mass [500 mg-20 g], with uncertainties of parts in 10\6\, and traceable to the new quantum International System of Units (SI). The two-hour virtual meeting will take place October 19, 2022, 11 a.m.-1 p.m. eastern time.

Discovery and Information Sharing Event Regarding Direct
Realization of Mass
AGENCY: National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST),
Commerce.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is
providing a public opportunity to learn more about NIST efforts to
develop a tabletop Kibble balance aimed at realizing mass [500 mg-20
g], with uncertainties of parts in 10\6\, and traceable to the new
quantum International System of Units (SI). The two-hour virtual
meeting will take place October 19, 2022, 11 a.m.-1 p.m. eastern time.
DATES: The workshop will be held on October 19, 2022, 11 a.m.-1 p.m.
eastern time. Registration is not required but requested via email to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The National Institute of Standards and
Technology (NIST) is providing a public opportunity to learn more about
NIST efforts to develop a tabletop Kibble balance aimed at realizing
mass [500 mg-20 g], with uncertainties of parts in 106, and traceable
to the new quantum International System of Units (SI). A first-
generation prototype, KIBB-g1 (patented by NIST), has proven gram-level
masses can be directly realized via a tabletop-sized, low complexity,
affordable system. Several government agencies are collaborating with
NIST to develop a second- generation model (provisional patent
submitted).
NIST is inviting industry leaders in mass metrology and precision
balance manufacturing, as well as other interested parties, to attend a
two-hour virtual meeting to learn more about the next generation
tabletop Kibble balance and opportunities for potential collaboration
with NIST to advance this technology.
Authority: 15 U.S.C. 272(b) & (c).

NIST Executive Secretariat.
