Adelaide University researchers have successfully tested a new type of portable atomic clock at sea for the first time, using technology that could help power the next generation of navigation, ...
Researchers at the UK’s National Physical Laboratory (NPL) have created a tiny atomic fountain clock. It is only 5 percent the size of a normal one but keeps the same high-precision time. The clock’s ...
China has taken a significant step in high-precision timekeeping by mass-producing a fingernail-sized chip-scale atomic clock ...
Nuclear clocks are the next big thing in ultra-precise timekeeping. Recent publications in the journal Nature propose a new method and new technology to build the clocks. Timekeeping has become more ...
A portable atomic clock that has been successfully tested at sea could change the future of marine navigation.
The most precise clocks ever built can now detect gravity’s warping of time across a distance shorter than a pencil tip. That ...
