摘要: 现代计量学原理建立在“欧氏几何的平直空间”、“质量守恒”和“光沿直线传播”等基本物理规律的基础上,但是广义相对论提出的时空弯曲和引力红移理论动摇了计量学的根基。在地球以外的更大尺度宇宙空间中,以及在引力场作用下、考虑物质第四态-等离子体的情况下,需要重新研究基本物理量的定义。时间测量受到了引力红移效应的影响,时钟在不同引力势下的走速不同,导航卫星为实现统一的时间测量,采用相对论公式修正了计时单位;长度单位定义依赖于光速常数和时间测量,同样受相对论效应影响,而且在引力场中光线不沿着直线传播,空间大尺度的距离单位光年定义困难;电压单位由约瑟夫森效应溯源到微波频率,因而也受相对论效应影响;在空间等离子体中电子平均动能(电子温度)与离子平均动能(离子温度)很难平衡。热力学温度单位定义隐含着平衡状态和无序运动的两个条件,在定向粒子流存在的情况下,动态温度的定义是否仅包含无序运动的粒子平均动能;质量单位定义受到质量守恒的质疑,根据爱因斯坦质能公式,质量不是物质固有不变的特性。空间计量是计量学的新领域,在地球以外的大尺度时空中,统一物理单位,确保人类在空间中的测量准确,运用现代科学理论重新定义空间物理量的单位将成为空间计量理论研究的一个发展方向。

Abstract: Modern metrology theory are base on truth of “the space is straight and flat in Euclid space”,“Mass of matter obeys conservation law”,and “light line is along straight”.But the General Relativity (GR) theory is shaking the root of modern metrology by “curve of space-time” and “gravitational red shift”.In large scale space out of the earth,in difference gravity potential,and considering the fourth state of matter-plasma,the basic units of physical needs research its define.Frequency measurement is influenced by gravitational red shift,clock speed is different with gravitational change.Navigation satellite adjusts its time unit according to relativistic theory formulae to unify system time measurement.The length unit depends on light speed constant and time measurement,also subject to relativistic effect.Because light line is curved by gravity,the distant unit of light-year which descript large span in space is difficult to define.Voltage unit trace to microwave frequency unit by means of Josephson’s effect,are also affected by relativistic effect.In space plasma,electrons and ions keep themselves temperature,because they have difference average kinetic energy.There are two conditions hide in definition of thermal temperature unit that conditions must be equilibrium and state of disorder or randomness.If weather the definition of dynamic temperature dose only include disorder average kinetic energy,in case of particles streams toward certain direction.The famous formula E=mc2 told us that mass of matter is not conservation.Mass of matter could change with its energy.Space metrology is new field of metrology.In large span space out of earth,space metrology will unify physical units,ensure human being to measure accuracy in space.It will become development orient of space metrology theory study that the space physical units are redefined according to modern science principle.
