Jericho Receivers Launches Software-Defined Atomic Clock That Harnesses ATSC 3.0 Broadcast Positioning System for Resilient, GPS-Independent Precision Timing WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. – June 30, 2026 – ...

Atomic clocks leveraged the atom to keep time, but new innovations will use the nucleus itself.

Keeping time is easy, keeping precise time is hard, but a new type of clock based on atomic nuclei has pushed time-keeping ...

Two independent teams of scientists have created the first functional clocks that can keep ultraprecise time using the nuclei ...

World's first thorium-229 nuclear clock shows potential for ultra-precise timekeeping and fundamental physics tests.

By using a rare thorium nucleus as a timekeeper, physicists have demonstrated the first working nuclear clock, a device that ...

First dreamed up decades ago, the world's first nuclear clocks are set to improve quickly, becoming more precise and aiding the hunt for dark matter.

But physicists have long dreamt of even better clocks that run on atomic nuclei, which are less sensitive to environmental disturbances. According to new research, that dream might soon become reality ...

Two teams of physicists have made the world’s first nuclear clocks. These radical new devices use fluctuations in the energy ...

Atomic clocks are established as the most precise timekeepers created. Atomic clocks work by deploying lasers to measure the vibrations of atoms (electromagnetic signals). By atoms oscillating at a ...

A clock built from thorium-229 has crossed an important line, from a long-discussed concept to a working device. The shift ...

"This book provides a introduction to the physics of time and time measurement, from an historical perspective to the modern day. It discusses the stability and accuracy of atomic frequency standards, ...
