Atomic clocks are the most accurate timekeepers we have, losing only seconds across billions of years. But apparently that’s not accurate enough – nuclear clocks could steal their thunder, speeding up ...
Scientists have developed the most precise and accurate atomic clock to date – if you ran it for twice the current age of the universe, it would only be off by one second. This could not only improve ...
Scientists in Germany have unveiled that the world’s most precise mobile atomic clock is so accurate that it will be off by ...
The way time is measured is on the edge of a historic upgrade. At the heart of this change is a new kind of atomic clock that uses light instead of microwaves. This shift means timekeeping could ...
Scientific clockmakers have crafted a prototype of a nuclear clock, hinting at future possibilities for using atomic nuclei to perform precise measurements of time and make new tests of fundamental ...
Physicists have demonstrated all the ingredients of a nuclear clock — a device that keeps time by measuring tiny energy shifts inside an atomic nucleus. Such clocks could lead to vast improvements in ...
The heart of a minuscule atomic clock—believed to be 100 times smaller than any other atomic clock—has been demonstrated by scientists at the Commerce Department’s National Institute of Standards and ...
A low-noise chip-scale atomic clock (LN-CSAC), the SA65-LN from Microchip, features a profile height of less than 0.5 in. (12.7 mm). Aimed at aerospace and defense applications where size, weight, and ...

Poland has just started up one of the few optical atomic clocks in the world that puts old cesium fountain atomic clocks to shame. Share on Facebook (opens in a new window) Share on X (opens in a new ...
(TNS) — In 2003, engineers from Germany and Switzerland began building a bridge across the Rhine River simultaneously from both sides. Months into construction, they found that the two sides did not ...
