MIT physicists double precision of optical atomic clocks with new quantum method
A tomic clocks, which power GPS, online transactions, and data networks, just became more precise. MIT physicists have developed a technique that doubles the accuracy of optical atomic clocks by ...
Every time you check the time on your phone, make an online transaction, or use a navigation app, you are depending on the ...
Scientists may have finally uncovered the mystery behind ultra-high-energy cosmic rays — the most powerful particles known in ...
Hailed as one of the 50 most important women in science, she found ways to study rare radioactive isotopes and advanced the ...
New studies of the “platypus of materials” help explain how their atoms arrange themselves into orderly, but nonrepeating, ...
In the middle of the 20th century, the atom was all the rage. Radiation was the shiny new solution to everything while being ...
Abstract: Atmospheric pressure oxygen plasma is expected to be applied to agricultural fields, such as sterilization and soil improvement. Understanding of the behavior of the oxygen atom generated by ...

How to Measure Nothing Better
Cold atoms could also potentially measure much lower vacuum pressures than ion gauges can. The current lowest pressure they’ve reliably measured is around 10 -9 Pa, and NIST scientists are working on ...
Dark matter has bewildered scientists for centuries. It makes up most of the universe’s matter, but it can’t be seen directly.
