Paper Abstract

The refractive index of air can be directly measured by a refractometer or can be calculated by using updated Edlén's formulas by measuring the parameters of the surrounding air or by using the modified two-colour method. In this paper an overview on the three methods is given by taking into account for their features, uncertainties and application fields.
