Compact nuclear clocks edge closer to reality

Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Sep 16, 2024
Scientists use atomic clocks to measure 'second,' the smallest standard unit of time, with great precision. These clocks use natural oscillations of electrons in atoms, similar to how pendulums work in old grandfather clocks. The quest for an even more precise timekeeper led to the discovery of nuclear clocks, which use the transitions of atomic nuclei instead of electrons to keep time. A
