A new study shows that electron spins—tiny magnetic properties of atoms that can store information—can be protected from ...

Atomic Digital Clock Auto Set (no back light) - Using radio frequencies broadcast ... Savings Time while set the DST on. Atomic Wall Clocks Battery Operated with Alarm - This digital calendar ...

Atomic clocks record time using microwaves to measure the frequency of quantum vibrations of electrons. They are the basis upon which a second is defined. But there’s a new kid on the block, the ...

Traditional atomic clocks, although precise, use microwaves to measure time. Optical atomic clocks, on the other hand, use laser light for even greater precision. However, their complexity has so far ...

Quantum sensors offer dramatically increased sensitivity compared to their classical incumbents or even enable new sensing capabilities altogether. Multiple industries are expected to benefit from ...

Now a Japanese company has commercialized one approach—an optical-lattice clock it claims is the most accurate on the market.

NASA and SpaceX are targeting no earlier than 4:15 a.m. EDT on Monday, April 21, for the next launch to deliver scientific ...

NASA and SpaceX are launching the company's 32nd commercial resupply services mission to the International Space Station ...

Unlike atomic clocks, this new type of timekeeper probes electron transitions with light. “Because visible light has a frequency that is five orders of magnitude higher than microwaves ...

A spacecraft used to bring food, fuel and other supplies to the International Space Station has been damaged, putting future trips on hold. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters ...
