Abstract :
Coaxial straight-wire resistors have been constructed with the purpose of improving comparisons between resistors, capacitors, and inductors in the audio frequency range. The design is based on the principle that a coaxial line with a cylindrical shield can be described by relatively simple equations for the real and imaginary parts of the impedance. The resistors, with values above 100 Ω will be used as primary transfer standards for characterization of frequency dependence
