Strontium Atomic Clock Demonstrates Super-fine 'Ticks' Science Daily
Using an ultra-stable laser to manipulate strontium atoms trapped in a "lattice" made of light, scientists at JILA (a joint institute of NIST and the University of Colorado at Boulder) have demonstrated the capability to produce the most precise "ticks" ever recorded in an optical atomic clock--techniques that may be useful in time keeping, precision measurements of high frequencies, and quantum
Hands up who really understands what Stephen Hawking is telling us? Independent
We came a little closer to knowing the mind of Stephen Hawking this week when he was interviewed by John Humphrys for a special edition of the Today programme on Radio 4. It is a mind filled with dark matter, black holes and multidimensional space-time. Perhaps the easiest concept to emerge from the brain of Britain's most celebrated living scientist was the notion that our future survival
