The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists set the Doomsday Clock to 89 seconds to midnight, one second more than the last two years, attributed to threats posed by climate change and artificial ...
Researchers demonstrated a new optical atomic clock that uses a single laser and doesn't require cryogenic temperatures. By greatly reducing the size and complexity of atomic clocks without ...
There are significantly different architectures for what are known as “atomic” clocks. Optically driven atomic clocks offer a new set of performance attributes. The optical atomic clocks use paired ...
The world is closer than ever to destruction, according to the Doomsday Clock, an attempt by the Chicago-based Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists to warn world leaders and civilians of man-made global ...
