He worked to develop an atomic clock that is essential to global positioning systems and helped confirm a rare state of ...

The project SPATIUM (Space Precision Atomic-clock TIming Utility Mission) presents a new technique for ionosphere mapping using a constellation of CubeSats equipped with Chip Scale Atomic Clock (CSAC) ...

The European Space Agency is getting ready for the launch of an atomic clock system to the International Space Station.

Atomic clocks keep getting smaller, lower power, and better—Microchip’s latest chip-scale version leverages EXMO technology to bring its height down to half an inch.

A technological innovation could revolutionize the precision of navigation systems. A tiny device, shaped like a comb, promises to deliver unparalleled accuracy in the field of positioning.

The next generation of atomic clocks "ticks" with the frequency of a laser. This is about 100,000 times faster than the microwave frequencies of the cesium clocks which are generating the second ...

It is usually a Rubidium atomic clock. A rubidium atomic clock measures the length of one second by counting the oscillations of rubidium-87 atoms.

In turn, atomic clocks on GNSS satellites became the most convenient way to calibrate and synchronize local clocks on the ground and to meet the stringent timing requirements of financial institutions ...

A recent breakthrough has paved the way for timekeeping even more precise than the measurements performed by atomic clocks.

Atomic clocks have served as the world’s most precise means of measuring time for over 70 years, but their reign may be finally coming to an end.
