The lecture gives an overview of the methods for measurements in the range of high vacuum and ultra high vacuum. The main topic is a pressure measurement in HV and UHV, the methods for measurement of a residual atmosphere composition and other physical quantities related to attributes of vacuum systems are reviewed, too. Finally, methods for estimation of technical parameters of vacuum systems and some measuring methods important from point of view of application in vacuum technology are considered.

4. Vacuum gauge calibration. Measuring ranges of the absolute vacuum gauges, membrane gauges, viscous gauges. High vacuum and ultra high vacuum standards, static expansion, dynamic expansion, dynamic reduction, molecular beams.

5. Partial pressure measurement. Quadrupol mass spectrometer, time-of-flight mass spectrometer. Analysis of the gas mixture composition at higher pressures, pressure transformer. Calibration an in-situ control of mass spectrometer parameters, reading and analysis of mass spectra.

6. Measurement of molecule concentration in the adsorbed layer, determination of the adsorption surface area, measurement of the roughness coefficient, methods for estimation of the diffusion and permeation coefficients.
