The clock is so reliable that it would be off by less than a second if it had started running 100 million years ago, researchers say. A new atomic clock is one of the world’s best timekeepers, ...

A team of scientists from the Department of Physics at King’s College London has discovered a set of mathematical equations ...

At this point, atomic clocks are old news. They’ve been quietly keeping our world on schedule for decades now, and have been through several iterations with each generation gaining more accuracy. They ...

There's a new record holder for the most accurate clock in the world. Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have improved their atomic clock based on a trapped ...

Atomic clocks use quantum physics and the resonant frequency of atoms, like cesium, to define time. Modern timekeeping relies on the accuracy of atomic clocks, which revolutionized timekeeping by ...

DENVER (KDVR) — It is said that time is relative and passes differently depending on an observer’s relative motion and gravitational potential. Although some would argue time is a construct, it does ...

A new Air Force project aims to replace vulnerable satellite signals with atomic clock technology for next-generation drone ...

Modern timekeeping relies on the accuracy of atomic clocks, which revolutionized timekeeping by using the quantum behavior of atoms to measure time. Discover how these incredibly precise clocks work, ...
