Breakthrough could pave the way for next-generation GPS in drones, smartphones and self-driving cars, scientists say.

Time will no longer be imposed upon us by a cesium fountain clock at the National Institute of Standards and Technology,” says experimental philosopher Jonathon Keats, who is leading the initiative in ...

Scientists have taken another giant step towards building the most precise clock ever imagined—one that could display not only the passage of time, but shifting rules of nature itself. An ...

Ultra precise Chinese lattice clock joins international system, challenging decades of US dominance in global timekeeping ...

Scientists are close to creating a nuclear clock—an ultra-accurate clock that uses a low-energy transition in the nucleus of a thorium-229 atom to keep time. Electrical interference makes atomic ...

Future Market Insights (FMI) estimates the Atomic Clock Market at USD 651.6 million in 2026 and projects it to reach USD 1,281.8 million by 2036, advancing at a 7.0% CAGR. Growth is being propelled by ...

A Chicago-based group of scientists have once again warned the world is closer than ever to human-made destruction by moving the symbolic “Doomsday Clock” up to 85 seconds to midnight.

In the realm of first-world problems, your cheap wall clock doesn’t keep time, so you have to keep setting it. The answer? Of course, you connect it to NTP and synchronize the clock with an ...

Dstl's trial has supported the development of next‑generation atomic clocks for the UK's defence needs. A trial led by the ...

The field of optical atomic clocks, in combination with ultracold atoms, has transformed precision timekeeping and metrology. By utilising laser-cooled atoms confined in optical lattices, researchers ...
